Coldean
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coldean is a suburb of Brighton and Hove, England and is one of its most well defined and self contained. Unlike its neighbours Moulsecoomb or Hollingbury, it sits in a steep sided valley ("dean" is Anglo-Saxon for valley) on the extreme north-east of the city. It is surrounded by the Wild Park, the Ditchling Road ridge and the estate of Stanmer Park.
On its southern border, where it abuts the busy Lewes Road, there is an expanse of urban parkland. Until the early 1990s, this was the main A27 road, although this number and trunk status has since been allocated to the "Brighton bypass" relief road, a short distance to the north of the old road.
