Goldstone Crescent, HOVE, BN3 6BD

Long road connecting Old Shoreham Road, the A270, with King George VI Avenue, the A2038, and consequently has been known to have been a bit of a rat run though this has lessened since the building of the bypass. As part of the deal in buying the land for Hove Park, the Nevill family had an option to develop what was soon known as Goldstone Crescent being marked as such on 1911 map. However, development was taken up until the 1920s and most of the length of road had been built upon by the end of the 1930s.

Just before the crossroads of Nevill Road with Nevill Place, to the left, and Nevill Way, to the right. This part of the road follows the course of an ancient east-west droveway which passed through the then small villages of Preston and West Blatchington. It was given the name in 1928 and the area built up from the late 1930s.

Built in 1936 to serve the new houses being built elsewhere. The name comes from the Nevill family, Marquises of Abergavenny who were the landlords of West Blatchington Farm and once owned the land which was subsequently developed in this area. Their coat of arms still adorn the pub sign.

The A2023 leaves the square and is about to meet the junction with the A2038. The South Downs can be seen in the distance to the left.
