About Roedean

Roedean perches on the chalk cliffs just east of Brighton, famous for its prestigious girls' school with those distinctive red-brick Victorian buildings. The A259 coast road provides the main access from Brighton city centre, whilst the A27 bypass offers connections from further afield. The clifftop position delivers spectacular Channel views but catches the full force of winter gales. Over 350 EV charging points are available in nearby Brighton. The school's 1898 buildings by Sir John Simpson remain instantly recognisable from miles along the coast.
