  • This video features views of Hastings town centre before it was pedestrianised and the Priory Meadow Shopping Centre built. We start at St Andrew's Bridge at the top of Queen's Road, and we go past the Liberal Centre and various hoardings. We see the now-demolished Queen's Parade, and Polly O'Keefe, the flower seller, all now long gone..In Roberston Street we see the now-demolished corner with the greengrocer's shop. Look out for the Hastings bus in 1992 livery. The video ends at George Rose in Havelock Road. We hope you appreciate all the irony and 'fin du siecle' stuff. Enjoy!

    Great to watch! 3 days later, 12th April 1992, I came from Switzerland to Hastings in school (EF), to learn english language. Staying for 3 month.

    When you watch stuff like this,it is good to say what you see here and what is there now!Also what was there before,like the Memorial clock stood here and the Orion and Ritz cinemas were up that road!!

      David Booth A copy of 'Unseen Hastings' has a brief illustrated history and will make a charming Christmas present if you know someone who remembers this much loved seaside town.

    Thanks for posting. I was in town that day. It seems like only yesterday but at the same time a thousand years ago. Thanks again.

    It is okay to set this video to different music as 'Illinois verses' as commented. To do this download the video with a RUclips downloader utility and add your own sound track. You will have to upload the video to your own channel and feature it there.

      i mute it and put on some music more befitting of the Carlise.

    It seems strange watching this knowing that:
    A) I would be born 10 years later
    B) My parents would get married the next year ('93)

    Happy days of buying games on tape and floppy disk from WH Smith and even if you wasnt the woman behind the counter was like a member of the stazi as if you had just made an illegal copy of it when in fact it was broken. S:\StartupDisk errors due to incompatabilities in KickStart 1.2 Roms :D

    Would you rather be in poverty and poor and have faith in God or be wealthy and healthy and have faith in God ~
