Hastings Old Town Guided Walk


Well I seem to have sorted out my IT problem, but don't hold your breath... Anyway, tomorrow (14th August) will again be blessed with an opportunity to take part in the Old Hastings Preservation Society's (OHPS) regular Tuesday afternoon free guided walk of Hastings Old Town. If you wish to follow the walk you need to meet up by the top of the West Hill Lift for 2.30pm. A volunteer guide from the OHPS will show you around the old town, with its historic buildings, twittens, and its many stories, and will tell you about the wealth of talented celebrities of their age who have visited and/or lived here, for example, a number of the Pre-Raphaelites in the 19th century (blog), indeed, the celebrities do still keep on arriving!


The walk will proceed across the West Hill and lead gently downhill into the old town, with a number of steps involved, and will last about 2 hours. The OHPS provides for this guided walk free of charge, though as a registered charity, they would be very grateful for all donations made, many thanks (website). You are advised to wear comfortable walking shoes, and the weather is forecast to be fair again, though likely some cloud (Met Office). Enjoy the afternoon!
