Nevill Avenue, Hove by Alan Hobden 21 January 2018Can anyone tell me when the road and the houses were constructed in Nevill Avenue please?3 replies Re: Nevill Avenue, Hove by Geoffrey Mead 22 January 2018The Abergavenny estate sold off much of the land around Nevill Rd and in West Blatchington at auction on 17th May 1939. The sale particulars just state ‘land in West Blatchington’ so no definite area. However a map accompanying the particulars show the [un-named] Nevill Rd as already developed with housing, so lets guess at 1934 when the Aldrington Manor Estate was being built. Re: Nevill Avenue, Hove by Alan Hobden 22 January 2018Many thanks Geoffrey. I guess The Keep will have street maps to confirm that, so I will take a look when I am next over there. J S Gray has stated that Holmes Avenue was built in 1931, and Nevill Road in 1932, but not until 1934/35 did the houses in Nevill Road come round the bend at the junction with Woodland Drive, so 1934 sounds about right for Nevill Avenue. Regards, Alan. Re: Nevill Avenue, Hove by Julia Wood 27 July 2020 11:35 AMI think parts of Nevill Avenue and Holmes Avenue, were later than 1931. My parents lived opposite Bishop Hannington Church for many years from 1954 until my mother’s death in 2016. They always said the house was built in 1939. The house on the corner of Holmes Avenue was a few years later. Some of the houses in the upper part of Holmes Avenue were definitely later than 1931.
