Getting to
3/15 Fourth Avenue, Hove, East Sussex BN3 2PL By Car From London You will be coming down the M23, then the A23. There are 2 ways to come in: 1. The quicker, less attractive route. As you are approaching Brighton, take the A27 to Hove and Worthing. Soon, at the roundabout, take the third exit A2038 to Hove (King George VI Avenue. This is a steep hill going down. It becomes 30mph and make sure you stick to it. Turn left into Nevill Road A2023, follow it (it goes right by the Co-op), it then turns into Sackville Road. Follow it down, turn right into Church Road. The seventh road on the right is Fourth Avenue. Park about two thirds of the way down in the middle of the road. 15 Fourth Avenue is on the left. 2.
