The Sussex coastal town of Peacehaven owes its creation to the events of World War One.

Whilst many men in Sussex were signing up to join the war effort, a local businessman began hatching a plan.

Charles Neville鈥檚 aim was, on the surface, seemingly very simple. He wanted to create a garden city by the sea where people including ex-servicemen would be able to purchase plots of land upon which they could build homes and a new life.

However, the evolution of Peacehaven was far more complicated than Mr Neville had anticipated.

Actor Brian Capron tells the intriguing story of the only town in the UK to be named after peace.
