Holbrook East is a chiefly residential ward to the east of Horsham town centre in West Sussex, England. It developed largely during 20th-century suburban expansion around the historic market town and combines terraces and family homes with pockets of council housing, small modern developments and several green spaces and playing fields.
The area has a strong local, community feel with primary schools, local shops, churches and sports clubs serving residents; many people commute from here to nearby towns or to London using the good rail and road links centred on Horsham. Its economy is mainly retail and services with small businesses, and the proximity to the town centre gives easy access to markets, cultural venues and walks into the surrounding Sussex countryside.
