BATES NURSERY ESTATE

This truly lovely photograph by a professional photographer (Harper of Hove) shows the construction of this estate in its early stages. It was taken for the Brighton Corporation in the summer of 1952 from a standpoint in the copse behind Birdham Road. The estate took its name from the Nursery which formerly occupied this extensive site, photographs of which appear on the preceding page. In the far distance can be seen part of the Hollingdean estate, which was being built at the same time.
