About

St James's Street runs eastward from the Old Steine, forming a long, sloping thoroughfare towards the sea. It is a dense, mixed-use corridor with a high concentration of independent shops, cafes, and pubs. The architecture is predominantly Victorian and Edwardian, with many converted townhouses now hosting businesses. The area is known for its distinct character and serves as a central hub for the local community.

To the north, the streets rise steeply into the Queen's Park district, a quieter residential neighbourhood centred around the large, leafy park of the same name. This area features many terraced houses and smaller local shops along roads like Queen's Park Road. The park itself includes a pond, tennis courts, and a historic walled garden, providing a green contrast to the busier street below.
