Until the completion of the seafront road, this was the main road east from Brighton, a continuation of Edward Street, following the line of the bridleway to Rottingdean. This was once the northern boundary of the area developed along the seafront in early Victorian times between central Brighton and Kemp Town. The section to the east of Rock Street was formerly known as York Street. Redeveloped from 1926 onwards (still in progress), there was severe bomb damage during World War II. A dual carriageway from Upper Rock Gardens to Upper Bedford Street was completed in 1971 but never extended as intended to Chichester Place and into Bristol Gardens. The tower blocks between Park Street and Freshfield Road were built early 1970s after slum clearances. The section east of Rock Street was renamed from York Street 6 February 18961.

Almost incontrovertibly the most distinguished houses in Brighton in terms of associations, all being Grade II listed.1 Nos 1-7 were built in 1828, 8-9 by 1830. As well as occupants of individual properties below, between 1848 and 1858 the Bavarian minister Baron de Cetto spent seasons at nos 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8. 1 was occupied for a short time from November 1828 by Viscountess Goderich, wife of Frederick John Robinson, Viscount Goderich (1752-1859), who was appointed prime minister by George IV in September 1827 on the death of George Canning but was succeeded by the Duke of Wellington in January 1828 without ever visiting parliament during his premiership—a unique achievement. It became a residence of Charles Hanbury-Tracy, 1st Baron Sudeley, from c.1836 until his death in 1858, followed by his son Thomas Charles Hanbury-Tracy, the 2nd Baron Sudeley until his death in 1863, and his grandson, Charles George Hanbury-Tracy, the 3rd Baron Sudeley. In 1876 he sold the house to Albert Abdullah David Sassoon (1818-1896) the British-Indian Jewish banker and philanthropist who was created a baronet in 1890. He died there on 24 October 1896. The Prince of Wales (later Edward VII) dined at the house after the Princess opened the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children in Dyke Road in July 1881 and stayed the weekend in February 1896 when he opened the Outpatients' Department of the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Eastern Road. The Shah of Persia stayed for three nights at the end of July 1889. Sir Albert's son, Sir Edward Sassoon, a Liberal Unionist MP, lived in the house intermittently until his death in 1912. Both were buried in the oriental-style family mausoleum behind the house, built by Albert Sassoon as early as 1876. The mausoleum was sold by Edward's son Sir Phillip Sassoon and cleared in 1933, becoming successively a furniture store, a decorator's premises, a pub called the Bombay Arms and the ballroom of the Hanbury Arms. The lamppost outside the house is Grade II listed.2 2 was the residence of the eminent journalist George Augustus Sala (1828-1895) for several years prior to his death at Norton Road, Hove in December 1895. 4 Thomas Cave (1825-1894), MP for Barnstaple (1865-1880), lived here with his family in the 1860s until c1875, including his son George (1856-1928), who was later Home Secretary and, as Viscount Cave, Lord Chancellor. 5 is where English churchman Edward Bouverie Pusey (1800-1882) convalesced in 1827.3 6 was the residence of James Ashbury, MP for Brighton 1874-1880 and defeated candidate in 1868 and 1880. General Ulysses S Grant, recently retired President of the United States (1868-1876), stayed here for three days as Ashbury's guest in October 1877. 7 was occupied for several weeks in 1844-45 by the then prime minister, Sir Robert Peel (1788-1850). 9 was occupied during 1840-41 by Constantine Henry Phipps, 1st Marquess of Normanby (1797-1863), then Home Secretary. Charles Freshfield moved here from his previous residence at Pennant Lodge, Queen's Park. After the Portuguese revolution in 1910 the deposed King Manoel II lived here briefly. It was used as an officers' convalescent home during the First World War. Between the wars it was occupied by members of the Vanderbilt family and in 1999 it featured as a hotel in the film The End of the Affair. In 2004 it was at the time the most expensive house ever on sale in Brighton at a guide price of £3m. |
