Map of the UK

Silverhill is a residential ward on the northern slopes of Hastings in East Sussex, occupying higher ground above the town and offering outlooks towards the South Downs. It forms a transition between the urban centre and the surrounding suburbs, with a mix of Victorian terraces alongside inter‑war and post‑war housing clustered around modest shopping parades and transport corridors.

Locally it acts as a small commercial and community hub with shops, schools, churches and green spaces; pockets of regeneration and active neighbourhood groups have shaped recent work on housing, traffic and local amenities. The area grew during Hastings’s 19th‑century expansion and retains a working‑class heritage reflected in its built fabric and social life, while bus and nearby rail links keep it connected to the town centre and employment areas.
