On reading the latest Hastings Independent newspaper (website) I was reminded that the digital pier archive was passed to Hastings Museum & Art Gallery when the current owner of Hastings Pier bought the Pier a couple of years ago. Since last year, the volunteers who maintain the Hastings Pier Community Archive (website) have worked in collaboration with Hastings Museum to preserve and add to this important local cultural asset, and our thanks go to the Museum and the volunteers.
Consequently, if you want to share memorabilia, films and photographs with the Archive, you can do so digitally, or send hard copies to them and they will digitise the information before returning the original copies to you. You can find out more information about Hastings Pier and its history from, and there is already very much to peruse and research there, or share at, their website. Great stuff!
