Hastings, Coastal town in East Sussex, England
The town stretches along three miles of seafront, featuring a traditional fishing fleet at the eastern end and bordered by cliffs on both sides.
The Norman Conquest of England began near Hastings in 1066, leading to the construction of Hastings Castle by William the Conqueror after his victory.
Hastings maintains its maritime heritage through its active fishing fleet, operating from tall black net shops along the Stade beach.
Visitors can reach Hastings by direct trains from London Victoria and Charing Cross stations, with the journey taking approximately 90 minutes.
The town features Bottle Alley, a covered double-deck promenade decorated with broken glass pieces set in concrete along the seafront.
