Shared description
High Street, Hastings
At just less than 0.4 miles long the High Street has over one hundred listed buildings and structures, accounting for most of the Street.
Running diagonally from South-West to North-East. The South-West half starts from the junction of East Parade (A259), the buildings are predominantly shops, with flats above and contains a varied mix of shops such as antique shops, bric-a-brac, art shops and galleries, pubs and cafés, and the 'famous' Judge's Bakery. Half way along the street can be found, a cinema, the old town hall, and old post office. The middle to North-West is predominately housing, and near the end St Mary's of the Sea church. The road then re-joins with The Bourne (also the A259).
