About

Patcham & Hollingbury is a northern ward of Brighton and Hove, characterised by its elevated position on the chalk downs. The area is largely residential, with a mix of post-war housing estates and older properties set along winding roads. It is bordered by the open green spaces of the South Downs National Park, providing direct access to walking trails and downland scenery. The local centre along London Road offers essential shops and services for the community.

The area is defined by its distinct topography, including the wooded Hollingbury Hill and its prominent golf course. Patcham Place, a historic manor house, sits near the busy A23 corridor which runs through the ward. The neighbourhood retains several older landmarks like the 13th-century St. Margaret's Church and the Victorian-era Patcham Windmill, standing in contrast to the surrounding modern development.
