A Visit To HASTINGS - I Was SHOCKED!

It is the return of the 4K walking tours of British seaside destinations as this week I venture to the beautiful town of Hastings in East Sussex. But is it worth a visit in the Autumn?
Most famous for the Battle of Hastings in 1066, this place really is swimming in history, however today I’m looking for answers as to why it’s such a popular seaside resort - I explore the dramatic cliffs, the landmark ruins of Hastings Castle, the quirky backstreets, the plethora of museums and galleries, the Old Town (which is rich with coffee shops, antiques and vintage outlets), the seafront amusement park and attractions, the sandy beaches, the high street and finally the famous pier. I really was shocked at just how much there is to see and do. So come along and walk with me as we explore another coastal tourist destination!
My name is Jack and I’m exploring the UK, making travel vlogs as I go. I’d be so grateful for your support, so please do like the video, leave a comment and subscribe to my channel here - youtube.com/@jackryanmiller?s...

Hello from Suffolk. I'm Swedish and I went to Hastings with EF language schools in a one year English Academic year in 1996-1997 and I'm still living in England. Hastings will always be my 2nd home and I'm trying to go down to Hastings with my kids 13 and 20 for Bonfire night, Jack in the Green and the Pirate weekend. I love all of Hastings and St Leonard's on sea. I used to live in Bexhill with an ex bf as well in 1998

Hi, I used to go to Hastings for day trips in the 80s when we were staying in Sussex, and I loved the charmingly crumbling feel of the place; the Aquarium - as it was then, the tall sheds for smoking fish, the once elegant charmingly crumbling balconied houses, the shops set back into the high walled street to name but a few, but my favourite was the recreation of the inside of a ship of the 17th century, complete with figures of the crew, the chests of wine and gold coins, but most impressive of all, the canon, firing with an ear splitting boom accompanied by the replica smell of a real fired canon. It stank but I was enthralled, especially when I learned the boy firing it could have been as young as twelve. Sadly, the aquarium has been modernised, losing all its charm, the replica ship has long gone, and the seafront is now lined with ugly modern buildings. But I did notice a bit of the decaying old world charm of the streets and shops is still there.

Nice video, glad you enjoyed Hastings, I was actually there today making the most of the sunny weather after the persistant rain of late - nothing new to me as I live in Bexhill, but it's good to know what others think of the place. I agree, steer clear of the town centre and head to the old town (George Street) and up past the free museum to the quiet stony beach. Nice walks up East Hill which leads on to the Country Park. You should explore there next time. Subscribed, as I love walking videos!

I moved to Hastings (well, St Leonards on Sea) from London 25 years ago and would not want to live anywhere else now. I've seen some changes (like it has become more gentrified) but it certainly has a lot going for it. It's sad that National Express no longer run through the town. I don't drive and used to take the coach up to London at least four times a year. Now we have to go to Brighton if we want to use that service. Glad you enjoyed your visit!

Nice snappy video that took in a lot of the major landmarks & captured the vibe of Hastings. I grew up there in the 80s & 90s but moved away around 2000. In recent years I've grown very nostalgic about the place & have a weeks holiday booked there end of April/Start of May, staying in the Old Town. I don't think I really appreciated what an interesting place it is when I lived there. Having a bit of sunshine (& spending money) helps when I go back! I was toying with the idea of retiring there one day but if it keeps on improving, I may not be able to afford a house eek..

He built a beautiful home called "the Breakers" which my gran remembered visiting. It was bombed and destroyed during WWII buy which time his grandchildren were in Canada on Salvation Army Missions, although his two g-grandchildren where teens and back fighting for England.

@@jackryanmiller Yes everywhere has ghost sightings but Battle Abbey where I work is more haunted than Hastings I see countless stuff there, shadow figures vanish into walls, monks who used to live at the Abbey and my boss knows of a monk who walks up and down the high street and go to the church and back over to the Abbey, in the school I've seen monks, full body appreciations, poltergeist activity, full body shadow spirits not flat, orbs list goes on but I've seen it so many times I just accept it and count myself lucky I can see and hear these things. You should get the app Haunted Maps got a green mansion logo, so simple but has locations wherever you are and you can add your own places with details if you want to just gotta log into Google if you want to do that otherwise you can use it as a guest. But I don't need maps at Battle as I see the spirits all the time even during the day. The school has lower floor visits during longer half term when the kids brake up.

@@chez9831 Music has been heard from the castle also when there wasn't anyone around, if it's spiritual then it's a residual haunting which is sounds and spirits repeating themselves or with audio, it doesn't happen often as a normal haunting but really cool when it happens.

Don't know if you believe in this stuff but I see spirits at work I'm so used to it it's not scary but even I can't explain stuff sometimes 👻 there's a house in the old town that had connections with The Pump House I always feel cold when I walk past it then soon as I passed it back to normal temperature even on a hot day.

I have had the opportunity to witness Hastings from both sides of the spectrum. I went to Hastings college of Art and Technology as a teenager and then I spent just under a year as a Police Officer in my 30's WHAT AN EYE OPENER!!!! They used to joke in the force, one years probation in Hastings was the equivalent of two years anywhere else in the county. Lovely place to look at and wonder around, during the day, but it has its problems when the sun goes down. One reason was, Sussex is known as the forgotten county. As a result the road links into Hastings are poor. Businesses do not want to set up there. So last I knew unemployment was high. And what comes hand in hand with that? DRINK, DRUGS and Violence. It just spirals down and down into a black abyss unfortunately. Don't get me wrong there are some lovely people in Hastings, just let down by a minority.
