Round Hill

About

Round Hill is a residential ward in Brighton and Hove, located northeast of the city center. The area is known for its mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, many of which have been converted into flats. It is bordered by Lewes Road to the west and Ditchling Road to the east, with easy access to public transport and local amenities. The ward includes several green spaces, such as Round Hill Crescent Park, providing small pockets of nature in an urban setting.

The area has a strong community feel, with independent shops, cafes, and pubs along Springfield Road and Islingword Road. Local schools, including St Luke’s Primary School, serve families in the area. Round Hill is also close to the University of Brighton’s Falmer campus, attracting students and academics. The ward’s proximity to the city center makes it a convenient location while retaining a quieter, neighborhood atmosphere.
