Thank you for your 1066 site, I have now seen the Coastguard Cottages that my 3 x gt grandfather lived in as a Coastguard.
He lived in Hastings 1837 and served almost 30 years as a Coastguard/Yeoman of Signals on HMS DAUNTLESS and HMS PRINCESS CHARLOTTE. The pictures of Ecclesbourne Glen was a nice find.
Thank you all for your efforts with the 1066 site.

Moved to Hastings from Yorkshire 6 years ago and feel as if I have lived here all my life. The scenery is spectacular and the welcome given to myself and family is greatly appreciated. No wonder the Normans wanted to conquer it!!!

What a fantastic website. Having moved to Hastings only a couple of years ago (after many visits over a period of 40 years) I can now show friends and family why I chose to move here.

Hi my name use to be Hilary Welch and i lived in Alexandra Road in the sixtys and seventies and went to Hastings High School for girls until we move to east anglia when my father died.
I loved living there and had some great friends, Alison Smith, Susan Warren, Elaine Bourner, Julie Price, Susan Jenkins, and Julies cousin Debbie, in particular.
I have been back for a visit but was sad to see how neglected it looked .I am hoping to visit again this year and even if it looks a bit tired there is still something special about Hastings.

Its extremly beautiful and am hoping to visit there many times.
I understand that the area will have a facelift soon, hopefully it will just improve it and not spoil the natural beauty.

Just discovered this site, and thought it would be nice for someone that actually lives in hastings to add there comment.
I am a youth of hastibgs and most of my friends say this is a dump, but i must say there is no other town in england that i would like to live in, and there is so much to do and explore.
Must say that if you like hastings then you must come back to visit again and again i mean i live here and i still haven't seen it all.

I've spent a month in Hastings with some friends! It was wonderful!
It's been ten years now and I still dream about this trip. It was my first one abroad!
What a nice experience!

First visit for 42yrs lots of changes a few more seats needed towards the pier and deckchairs up that end and small cafe would be nice, and boat trips would be good.
But we had a great visit lovely weather, daily up in the small lift to the cliffs lovely being up there for the view.
Good meals in the cafes.
Lovely hotel the Chatsworth well worth a visit for the attention you receive and lovely room.

Just came home from a wonderful trip in Britain. We spent 2 days around Battle, Hastings and St Leonards On Sea. There is so much to do and see, despite the terrible rain! A very special thanks to the staff at High Beech Hotel in St Leonards On Sea. You made our trip twice as enjoyable!

I found I miss Hastings more and more as I get older.
I have been writing a book of my youth and long for those days of yesteryear. I have lived up here in Cheshire for almost 20 years and will never get back due to ill health.
Never mind, this guestbook is absolutely fandabydozy and it's nice to read other peoples comments.

After the war we moved from London to Hastings. My parents lived on the Sedelscome Rd. they had a restaurant called 'The Spiders Web' this would be around 1946 to 1955 when we sailed to N.Z
My brother and I attended Silver Hill School and then I went to St. Leonards Secondry Modern School forn girls. Loved going to dancing classes at Ivy Stevens dance school also skating in the Old Town.
My Parents would take us once a month to the Court Players on the end of the Pier. Our little village was called the Harrow and was on the Ridge. My name was Linda Brider. Bye for now.
