Tammy and I were the first to arrive at the Brighton town hall to start setting up for the investigation ahead we were closely followed by Clare and Nath. We had decided to invite a reporter from the Evening Argus newspaper along with a photographer Sam Stevenson who was first to arrive and then Tim Ridgway whom we had made contact with earlier on in the week .
            I set up the camcorders on the tripods that were going to be deployed in various locations within the town hall and police museum. I had also setup my Laptop to give everybody taking part in the investigation a power point presentation which started at about 20:20.
           It was decided that we would split up into two groups I would take one group, and the other group would be led by Clare. We decided to give everybody a tour of the building first in order to familiarise everybody with the layout of the building. We started our investigation at just before 9 pm! We visited the following locations.

Comments: When I visited this location with my group , the doors in the far left corner seem to bang for no reason and there were no draughts coming through. I think this location is very impressive to look at.

Conclusion: I think overall this is a very interesting location and is deceptively big and has quite a few locations. I think even though our equipment did not register any hard evidence it is very difficult to dispute the bruise on Nath’s arm. I think incidents like this are rare! I believe Henry Solomon is very much a part of the building and its rooms especially the police museum. I would hope in future we could perhaps arrange another investigation as this great location. I would like to thank Pat Drake the councillor who allowed us to do this investigation and the security officer who was present on the night. I would also  like to mention a big thank you to Tim Ridgway and Sam Stevenson from the Argus for coming along on the night , and for the fantastic article they produced in the Argus Monday 27th Nov edition.
