Hastings Announced As Britain’s Best Walking Neighbourhood!


Hastings Old Town has today been announced, at last (they took their time about that!), as the Rambers' Best Walking Neighbourhood 2018, receiving over 20% of the vote, with 9 other shortlisted areas (i News website). "The Ramblers say the area's streets were (like Nancy Sinatra's boots) "made for walking" and several factors contributed to its victory." Though they didn't actually say like Nancy Sinatra's boots, that was me, but the factors mentioned included priority for pedestrians in some local roads, certain vehicle restrictions and improvements to pavements and paths, and the historic twittens that allow people to walk between the roads peacefully.


You may have noticed, if you looked at the i News website, that the wonderful Stacey Marie, RX134, and net huts, were again used as photographic support!

Nice one Hastings!
