  • We visited St. Leonards-on-Sea and explored the surrounding areas of Hastings and Bexhill. This video is a snapshot of what we explored including a visit to the iconic Marine Court. The building was designed by architects Kenneth Dalgleish and Roger K Pullen. The building has lots of resemblances to the Cunard White-Star Line Queen Mary ship. The Queen Mary ocean liner entered commercial transatlantic service in 1936. The east end of Marine Court is shaped to imitate the curved, stacked bridge front of the Queen Mary.
    The south part of the building is vertical, with balconies imitating the promenade deck aboard the Queen Mary ship. The upper floors of Marine Court resemble a superstructure of a ship. The ground floor shop frontages were black, the external walls of Marine Court were painted white to resemble the typical colours of the Queen Mary.

    I'm hoping to buy a flat there, missing Hastings & At Leonard's on sea. Was there this weekend just gone and I also used to live in Bexhill

      A year later I hope you managed to get your flat there . I lived there as a girl and young woman and had both daughters there too … I still miss the place many years later .
