The coastal footpath into Ecclesbourne Glen is to reopen.
The main footpath into Ecclesbourne Glen from the East Hill has been closed since 2013 after a landslip destroyed the footpath into the glen. The latest report from specialist engineers has concluded the landslip area in the Glen has now stabilised and is in a dormant condition.
East Sussex CC and Hastings BC have agreed that restoration work can start this autumn. The aim is to have the main footpath path in Ecclesbourne Glen open as part of the new England Coastal path for this part of our coastline.
The Friends of Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve are delighted that persistent local community pressure has finally had an effect.
