Hollingdean

Hollingdean

Hollingdean is a part of the city of Brighton & Hove.

Hollingdean is in effect the older part of Hollingbury south of the park. It is bounded by Ditchling Road to the west, the Round Hill area to the south, and Lewes Road and Moulsecoomb to the east. A mainly residential area, mostly a council estate, with late 19th and early 20th-century terraced houses towards the Fiveways, and some railway land, light industry, and warehousing.

The only public building of historic interest in Hollingdean is small Jewish Cemetery.

The site of Brighton's old abattoir (slaughterhouse) is now being used for light industry and a controversial waste disposal facility.
