About

Central St Leonards is a residential ward situated inland from the seafront, centred around the London Road thoroughfare. The area is characterised by a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, with local shopping parades serving the community. It contains several schools and green spaces, including the informal recreation ground at Gensing Gardens. The topography includes slopes rising from the west, offering views towards the town centre.

A notable local landmark is the Church in the Wood at St Leonards-on-Sea, with its distinctive spire and historic graveyard. The ward functions as a connective residential area between the more commercial centres of Hastings and the western seafront. Housing varies from larger period homes to more modest terraces, with a primarily local population. The infrastructure supports day-to-day needs without major tourist attractions.
