A cul de sac off Stapley Road that was built in 2005 on the site of Knoll Infants School which operated here from 1956 until closure after amalgamation in 2001. The original infants school had moved from a site on Bellingham Crescent. The Knoll Estate is located in the former northern portion of the parish of Aldrington which was once three open fields called The Knowle East, The Knowle West and The Knowle North according to its 1840 tithe map. The area was developed by Hove council from 1926 and mostly completed by 1939, the remaining undeveloped part at the northern end of Stapley Road was finished in the late 1940s.
