He gave up a respectable career as a dentist to fly balloons, and on 5 September 1862 Henry Coxwell carried James Glaisher higher than any human had ever been, pulling the valve cord with his teeth to save both their lives when his hands froze. He spent his last years in Seaford, running a balloon factory on Richmond Road. This is the story of the town's forgotten aeronaut.

George Canning — The Seaford MP Who Was Britain's Shortest-Serving PM (Until Liz Truss)

George Canning lodged at Seaford House on Crouch Lane to represent what was then a rotten borough, walked Seaford Head before breakfast, and governed for just 119 days before dying in office. It was the shortest premiership in British history until Liz Truss in 2022.
