Hastings opens up its history

The Heritage Open days scheme - Thursday, September 9, to Sunday, September 12.

Anne Scott, chairman of the Old Hastings Preservation Society, [History House, 21 Courthouse Street] said: "This town has such a wonderful heritage, both in terms of buildings and characters who lived here, and we have got everything from the Iron Age to Marine Court. This is all about opening up the town's history to the widest possible audience.

"It's important to appreciate our heritage so we can try to learn from it and use the opportunities of history for today's needs."
