VirtualWalks Hastings Castle, West Hill and George Street

Hastings Castle still dominates the town, on West Hill, where, on a clear day you may be able see the coast of France. Closer are the old narrow streets and rooftops of Old Town, the fishing beach and views of the whole of Hastings and St Leonards. Timeless Old Town, a mixture of narrow streets, alleyways, steps this way and that, of Smuggler’s Caves and Foyles War, of back streets, cottages and tiny gardens of pots and troughs that it is almost a surprise that George Street appears below. These Virtual Walks are taken from the History Walks series of ‘Short Walks in 1066 Country’. www.1066haroldsway.co.uk
