Communal Gardens
Kemp Town Enclosures are communal gardens, owned collectively by the freeholders of the 105 houses that make up the Kemp Town Estate. Developed in the 1820’s by Thomas Kemp, the Estate consists of Sussex Square, Lewes Crescent, Chichester Terrace and Arundel Terrace. The gardens were landscaped in 1828 by local horticulturist Henry Phillips at around the time that the Kemp Town Estate was being constructed, with the tunnel to the esplanade being added in about 1830.

This property used to be part of and connected to what is now known as, Flat 4, 20 Bristol Gardens, Brighton, BN2 5JR. The family separated them to create an investment property but they are now selling both. The original staircase still exists and the two properties could easily be one substantial dwelling again.
