Hastings – at sea level

It was fascinating stay in a place which seemed to operate on so many levels. We were staying in Hastings Old Town, and it didn’t take many steps to find a whole new aspect. Heading along the road away from the bars and shops there are the tall black sheds in which the fishing equipment is stored.

The beach is shingle, and as there is no harbour all the boats have to be pulled up on to the shore.

Including the lifeboat…

I’ve just realised how remiss it was of me not to go to the fun fair, what a lot of pictures I missed!

About penny

I live in Norfolk, England in a cottage on the edge of the Norfolk Broads where it can be peaceful and beautiful, or wet and muddy, or occasionally wild and windswept. With me is husband Tim, Henry the elderly and opinionated tabby cat, and Higgins, the miniature dachshund with a massive personality. You’ll find me chattering on about wool and textiles, knitting and crochet, recipes, books and patterns, exhibitions and shopping and of course, the adventures of a small dog! Planet Penny has a Facebook Page, you can find me on UK Handmade and I am featured on Channel4/4Homes Favourite Craft Blog List.

    Lovely shots of boats ! With all these photos , Hastings becomes more interesting by the blog entry . Quite definitely going to include it in my travels next summer . As a European resident I can buy travel passes for a few days unlimited travel , so Hastings is do-able . A quick crunch over the pebbles ,some antique shops , whelks and a bracing walk along the sea-front . Oh yes !
