Hi, I am Hollingdean. I am an estate based in the Hollingbury and Stanmer Ward, in Brighton, UK, comprising approximately 10,000 households. I'm 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. I am in effect the older part of Hollingbury south of the park. I am bounded by Ditchling Road to the west, the Round Hill area to the south, and Lewes Road and Moulsecoomb to the east.
The only public building of historic interest within me 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.
My Name: I am named after one of the 'laines' of the parish of Preston in the early 19th century.
