Old School Place, Knoll Estate, Hove
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.

Knoll Recreation Ground, Hove
The northern tip of the recreation ground following the footpath that links Rowan Avenue to Stapley Road. The park was built in the 1950s on the site of an old rubbish tip and utilised part of the old track bed of the Dyke Railway whose course followed the hedge on the right. The railway was built for tourists in 1887 but suffered from the poor siting of the terminus which would eventually lose trade in the 1920s and 30s to motorbuses which dropped visitors at the very edge of the Devils Dyke. Consequently the branch was closed on New Year's Eve, 1938. Much of the track bed can still be made out north of the bypass, however, to the south bridges and cuttings have been filled in or removed and subsequently built over. The building with the white roof is Image

131a, Stapley Road, Knoll Estate, Hove
Tucked away on the footpath that links Stapley Road to Rowan Avenue via Knoll Recreation Ground is this rather utilatarian building that is currently occupied by Little lambs Kindergarten. The building dates from the 1940s and is marked on the 1951-64 OS maps as a central kitchen and on a 1986 edition as a training centre and looks as if it was once council owned.
