Historic Context

 
Back to > BHUG HomePage

This series of pages aims to provide a historic context to the Brickell History development, with each timeline page providing a list of key events that occurred during the specific period.

Additional subpages will be added on specific topics within the period with links from the timeline tables.

Individual Brickells will then be set into this timeline so that their lives can be better understood by considering the events that they lived through.

This is an evolving piece of work and any suggestions or comments would be welcomed so that it can be developed in the most useful manner.
