Brighton and Hove has a wide spread of housing in a small space. The Regency squares and crescents along the seafront, including Brunswick Town and Kemp Town, sit in conservation areas with many listed buildings. Hanover, Preston Park and the streets around the station are tightly packed Victorian terraces. Further out, Patcham, Westdene and Woodingdean have 1930s semis and post-war houses with simpler roofs, and Saltdean and Rottingdean have plenty of bungalows. Brighton and Hove City Council handles planning, and we check conservation-area rules before the design.
The South Downs National Park wraps around the north of the city, so homes on the edge may fall inside it and face stricter planning. Seafront roofs take salt-laden wind, which means marine-grade fixings matter. The south coast gives about 950 kWh per kWp a year (PVGIS). Brighton is inside the area we cover and on the UK Power Networks system. The first survey is a video call, and site visits are grouped.
