A £14 million bid to transform Brighton's world-famous royal estate has been knocked back.

Brighton and Hove City Council and Brighton Dome and Festival joined forces in asking for the funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund to revamp the royal Pavilion Estate.

At the time, it was claimed the money was needed to kickstart work to preserve the complex, which contains eight listed buildings and used to be home of George IV, for future generations.

But, after being told the bad news yesterday (Tuesday May 27), bosses admitted they were disappointed.

However, they have vowed to look again at the plans and resubmit another bid, potentially in November.
