About

Coldean & Stanmer ward encompasses the northernmost residential and rural edges of the city. The area is dominated by the expansive South Downs, with the University of Sussex and Brighton General Hospital situated within its boundaries. Residential life centres on the post-war Coldean estate, a quiet neighbourhood of houses and low-rise flats set into the downland valley.

The ward contains a significant portion of Stanmer Park, a large historic country estate with woodlands and open downland. The park is home to Stanmer House and a preserved village, offering extensive walking trails. This blend of university campus, residential housing, and protected parkland defines the area's character, separating it from the more densely built-up coastal areas of Brighton and Hove.
