Kemp Town Enclosures is a communal garden that covers approx. 7.5 acres, now owned collectively by the freeholders of the houses that make up the Kemp Town Estate. Developed in the 1820's by Thomas Kemp, the Estate consists of Sussex Square, Lewes Crescent, Chichester Terrace and Arundel Terrace. The gardens were landscaped in 1828 by local horticulturist Henry Phillips at around the time that the Kemp Town Estate was being constructed, more than 20,000 plants, including semi-mature trees and shrubs were needed. The tunnel that runs from the South gardens to the esplanade was added in about 1830. It was rumoured to have provided inspiration for the rabbit hole in Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland' novel.
