Kemptown, Brighton

Kemptown is a small community running along the King's Cliff from the Old Steine to Black Rock in the east of Brighton, East Sussex, England it includes the Kemp Town residential estate known as Sussex Square and Lewes Crescent to its eastern end.

Returning south to the seafront, Kemptown's easterly neighbours are Black Rock and then Roedean.
