Plans to erect a six metre-tall sculpture of a to mark the 950th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings have been submitted to the council
Leigh Dyer is building the sculpture for the Root 1066 Festival later this year and planning permission is now being sought from Hastings Borough Council.
Mr Dyer hopes to place the boat on the shingle opposite Denmark Place.
All the comments are supportive of the ‘beautiful thing with great resonance’, as Val Hunnisett described it.
The project is being done in collaboration with British Artist Blacksmith Association but Leigh is also relying on crowdfunding to make it happen.
