Preston Park

Preston Park ward encompasses a residential neighbourhood centred around its large Victorian-era park, which provides extensive green space, sports facilities, and a popular velodrome. The area is characterised by tree-lined streets and a mix of housing, from terraced homes to larger detached properties. It functions as a quiet, settled community with strong local amenities, including independent shops and cafes along Preston Drove and surrounding roads.

The ward is distinctly separate from the city centre, offering a more suburban pace while remaining well-connected by public transport. Its identity is closely tied to the park itself, which hosts major annual events like Brighton's Pride festival. The area also includes the Preston Manor estate, a historic house with preserved Edwardian interiors and gardens, adding a layer of historical character to the local environment.
