Strolling through Brighton's residential areas, with their lovely Regency-style terraces and squares, is a popular pastime. 

West of the town center, heading towards Hove, are street after street of old homes, with round bay windows and iron balconies. 

The best examples are at Regency Square, Brunswick Terrace, Brunswick Square, and the horseshoe-shaped Adelaide Crescent. Sussex Square, Lewes Crescent, and Arundel Terrace, all east of the town center, are also worth seeing.

 Another fine local example of historic architecture, Preston Manor is open to the public and perfectly captures life at the turn of the century.
