The road links Hollingbury Road with the crossroads at Hollingdean Terrace with the road continuining as Hollingbury Place. It was developed between 1910 and 1914 and descends into what was once Cowley's Bottom containing a single building, Harrington Farm. The valley was developed from 1900 and again in the 1920s with the eastern slope competed in the 1950s. The suburb of Hollingdean is roughly bounded by Hollingbury Road in the west, Hollingdean Road to the south and the railway line to the east. To the north is open downland containing Hollingbury Park Golf Course.
