The OHPS Regular Old Town Guided Walk...


Another new week begins, but one regular summer arrangement continues, happily, the Old Hastings Preservation Society's (OHPS) Tuesday afternoon free guided walk of Hastings Old Town can be experienced tomorrow. If you would like to join the walk, it meets up by the top of the West Hill Lift at 2.30pm (21st August). A volunteer guide from the OHPS will show you around the 'old town' of Hastings, with its historic buildings, twittens, tales and stories, and share knowledge of the talented celebrities of their age who have visited and/or lived in Hastings, for example, the Pre-Raphaelites in the 19th century (past blog); and 'celebrities' keep on arriving!


You will cross the West Hill and head gently downhill into the old town, with a number of steps involved as you would expect, and the walk lasts about 2 hours. The OHPS provides for this guided walk free of charge, though, as they are a registered charity, they would be very grateful for all donations made, many thanks (website). You are advised to wear comfortable walking shoes, and, as the weather forecast for tomorrow afternoon is bright and sunny, (Met Office), applied Factor 50 and/or donning a head covering may be appropriate...

Whatever, enjoy your day!
