Situated near the village of Bramdean, it is part of the South Downs National Park, a designated area of outstanding natural beauty.

The hill is characterized by its gentle slopes and lush greenery, covered with a variety of vegetation including grasses, wildflowers, and scattered trees. It is primarily composed of chalk, a characteristic geological feature of the South Downs area. This chalky terrain supports a diverse range of wildlife, including various bird species, small mammals, and insects.

Looking from Riders Lane into Bramdean Drive The roads in Leigh Park follow two naming patterns, both of which are ilustrated here. Riders Lane was one of the original tracks through the grounds of the stately home after which the estate is named. All roads built after the purchase of the estate by Portsmouth Housing Corporation in the late forties are named after Hampshire villages.
