This dynamic initiative, rooted in local history will transform the pathway. It will:
• Encourage visitors to the Old Town to explore more of the town, especially inland, by providing temporary and permanent public art, thus enhancing the historic and cultural assets of Hastings.
• Become a processional route, linking the area into existing and developing cultural events.
• Reclaim the lane, un-maintained areas and features that are falling into dereliction.
• Encourage the use of the site for positive activities.
• Improve the local natural life and environment by planting indigenous plants, thereby encouraging wildlife.
• Encourage community interest by volunteering and involvement in creative projects.
• Become a viable link between the Old Town and New Town.
• Enhance the developing reputation of the area, and Hastings, as a vibrant and dynamic cultural hub, and a town regenerating itself through creative activities.
• Add to the perception and reality of regeneration within Hastings |
