Day trip by coach - along the East Sussex coast! (NOW FULL)
THE TRIP IS NOW FULL. IF YOU WISH TO ATTEND, ADD YOURSELF TO THE WAITING LIST AND I WILL CONTACT YOU IF A PLACE BECOMES AVAILABLE. Come along on Saturday, August 1st for a coach trip along the East Sussex coast! About the trip East Sussex is located on the south coast and is part of the historic county of Sussex. Its origins trace back to the ancient kingdom of the South Saxons, who established themselves there in the 5th century AD, after the Romans departed. It is renowned for its green hills, Weald-land, and charming seaside towns with their fishing heritage. The towns we will be visiting are: Bexhill-on-Sea Bexhill-on-Sea features modern vintage shops, unique art and music venues, and independent cafés and restaurants. During the Norman Conquest of 1066, it appears that Bexhill was largely destroyed. In 1804, defensive Martello towers were built along the south coast, some near Bexhill, to repel any French invasion, and they still exist today. The most notable landmark is the De La Warr Pavilion. Built in 1934, the pavilion is Grade I listed and situated on the seafront. The building was the result of an architectural competition. Pevensey Bay Pevensey Bay is an old fishing village founded in the 1600s. The bay is famous as the 1066 landing site of William the Conqueror and the Norman army. It has a quiet shingle beach and a mix of Edwardian townhouses and beachfront homes. In the early 1900s, the village evolved into the holiday resort it is today. Eastbourne Eastbourne is a very Victorian seaside resort with a well-maintained promenade and a restored pier from 1870. It also boasts a 5-mile stretch of award-winning beaches. It features an art gallery called the Towner Art Gallery, which includes modern British works, and the Redoubt Fortress, built during the Napoleonic Wars, which houses a military museum. It is also known as the sunniest place in the UK.
