Kemp Town, Regency residential complex in Brighton, England
The estate includes Arundel Terrace, Lewes Crescent, Sussex Square, Chichester Terrace, and private gardens arranged in a coherent architectural layout.
Thomas Read Kemp initiated the development in 1823, with architects Charles Busby and Amon Henry Wilds designing the estate completed by Thomas Cubitt in 1855.
The residential complex represents the architectural preferences of wealthy 19th-century English society through its classical elements and grand proportions.
The Kemp Town Enclosures remain under collective ownership of 105 freeholders who maintain the private gardens and common areas of the estate.
Sussex Square stands as the largest housing crescent in Britain, exceeding the dimensions of London's Grosvenor Square.
