List of conservation areas in Brighton and Hove

Columns: Name | Size | Date | Notes
Old Town | 46.77 acres ( 18.93 ha ) | 1973 | The narrow , winding twittens known as The Lanes were built up in the 16th and 17th centuries as Brighton 's fishing industry thrived . Most surviving buildings come from a second period of growth in the 18th and 19th centuries , as small houses were built for newly arrived workers . Many have been converted into small independent shops . Several old pubs , Thomas Lainson 's Byzantine Revival Middle Street Synagogue ( 1875 ) and the Quaker meeting house ( 1805 ) are also in the area | Ovingdean | 48.58 acres ( 19.66 ha ) | 1970 | Events in Harrison Ainsworth 's novel Ovingdean Grange are fictional , but the building ( formerly the manor house ) exists in the centre of this downland village , inland from Rottingdean and 2.5 miles ( 4 km ) east of Brighton . St Wulfran 's Church , whose churchyard contains a memorial to the family of William Willett , is 12th-century . The adjacent rectory , Ovingdean Hall ( a school until 2010 ) and many flint cottages , mostly of the 18th century , surround the village green and main street | Patcham | 20.78 acres ( 8.41 ha ) | 1970 | This ancient downland village was extensively suburbanised in the interwar period , but the core of the village - around All Saints Church - remains intact . One of Sussex 's largest villages ( and parishes ) in the 11th century , the population declined by the 19th century ; the conservation area 's boundary match those of the village as it was from the 1870s until expansion began ( as a result of its inclusion within the Borough of Brighton in 1928 ) . Well-wooded parkland , especially around the Grade II*-listed Patcham Place , and access to the South Downs ( affected by construction of the Brighton Bypass in the 1990s ) contribute to the area 's character . Many buildings are of flint or cobblestone ; some have glazed black mathematical tiles | Pembroke & Princes , Hove | 54.74 acres ( 22.15 ha ) | 1989 | Most of this area consists of large late Victorian and early Edwardian houses built during Hove 's westward expansion . There is also some later housing , mainly of the 1920s and 1930s . Large front gardens , wide curved tree-lined streets , tile-hung façades , painted exterior timbers and hipped roofs with gable ends characterise the area . Non-residential buildings of interest include the Italianate Brooker Hall , now a museum , and Barford Court - an unusual Neo-Georgian/ Art Deco nursing home built of handmade purple bricks | Portslade Old Village | 34.21 acres ( 13.84 ha ) | 1974 | Portslade sits in a valley west of Hove and has pre-medieval origins ; the old village clusters around St Nicolas ' Church and the ruined manor house . Pevsner thought that the combination of small flint-walled cottages and a huge Classical / Italianate brewery building of 1881 made it a bizarre landscape . Extensive parkland , nearby woodland , extensive flint walling and some large 19th-century detached houses contribute to the area 's character . Many buildings are listed | Preston Park | 214.47 acres ( 86.79 ha ) | 1970 | This area consists of the extensive late-19th-century residential areas north and east of Preston Park : the park itself is part of the neighbouring Preston Village conservation area . Developed in a controlled , architecturally harmonious manner between 1865 and 1885 , the long , straight streets of brick villas have features such as timbered gables , decorated bargeboards , canted bay windows and walls combining red brickwork and stucco . Two churches , including the Grade II-listed St Augustine 's , contribute to the character of the area
