This part of Hove was built up from the 1870s onwards when the Stanford Estate was given over to commercial development. This minor road heads south to the sea and gives some idea to space afforded to the roads and avenues for the well to do, consequently unlike many other Victorian roads this one is wide enough to have room for cars to park in the middle. The original buildings are by and large untouched with the exception of a few blocks of flats on the eastern side. This view looks south from the curve in the road near the junction with the B2120.
