About Hastings - show infohide info
Hastings is a town and local government district in South East England, in the county of East Sussex. The population was about 84,000 in 2000. Known as a seaside resort and for the Battle of Hastings 1066, which actually occurred at the nearby town of Battle. Hastings was one of the Cinque Ports, but its significance as a port declined after the Middle Ages and its main industry became fishing. It still has the largest beach-based fishing fleet in England. The town enjoyed some modest expansion in the latter part of the 20th century. Hastings is linked to London via two seperate railway lines, and by the A21. The town is notable for also having two funicular railways. Towns nearby Hastings include Bexhill, Eastbourne, Brighton, Battle, Lydd, Hove and Uckfield.
