Clifton Hill and Montpelier were developed from the 1820s to the 1860s and were considered at the time to be the most salubrious part of the town. Today they are an outstanding area of conservation with fine examples of Regency and Victorian architecture. The Clifton Hill Conservation Area was originally designated in 1973, it was extended in 1977 and now covers 75 acres. This area was renamed by Brighton & Hove Council in 2005 and is now known as the Montpelier and Clifton Hill Conservation Area.
