Old Hastings Preservation Society was founded in 1952 to promote the permanent preservation of buildings of beauty/historic interest, especially in Hastings & St. Leonards and foster an appreciation of the history of Hastings. We encourage and record research which supports our objectives. Good architecture, design and town planning is encouraged. In 1956 we founded the Hastings Fishermen’s Museum open daily in Rock-a-Nore Road and more recently Hastings History House.

Country Park News!
After 16 months of hard work we have won the battle to keep the Country Park free of industrial scale solar arrays. Cllr.

Here is the link to the Council’s press release:

The decision was apparently based upon both a financial reappraisal and the response received from Natural England to the request for advice.
