Summary

Description

Views of Brighton and Hove #9. This view looks slightly east of due south from near the top of Hollingbury Hill, 584 feet (178 m) above sea level, towards the Bear Road/Coombe Road neighbourhood and beyond. Features (click to enlarge):

  • The allotments separate the Bear Road area from the Bevendean estate.
  • To the right of the allotments, roads such as Dewe, Redvers, Buller and Nesbitt Road run left-right towards the steeply sloping parallel Milner and Coombe Roads. The treeline going uphill in the centre of the picture runs between Milner and Coombe Roads.
  • Above this, Elm Grove runs right across the picture from right to left below the large hospital buildings on the skyline.
  • The sharply angled streets in the top right are the terraces running between Elm Grove and Hartington Road.
  • On the skyline from left to right are Brighton Racecourse; Brighton General Hospital; new flats on Pankhurst Avenue; and the 1920s semi-detached houses of the Pankhurst Estate.
  • In the foreground, right at the bottom, are semi-detached houses on The Highway at the bottom end of the Moulsecoomb estate. These face Lewes Road.
  • On the other side of Lewes Road, the upper storeys of the Cockroft Building are visible. This is the main tower block of the University of Brighton.
  • The remains of St Alban's Church at the junction of Coombe Road and Buller Road are marked. It was in the middle of being demolished at the time this picture was taken.
