This video features views of Hastings town centre before it was pedestrianised and the Priory Meadow Shopping Centre built. We start at St Andrew's Bridge at the top of Queen's Road, and we go past the Liberal Centre and various hoardings. We see the now-demolished Queen's Parade, and Polly O'Keefe, the flower seller, all now long gone..In Roberston Street we see the now-demolished corner with the greengrocer's shop. Look out for the Hastings bus in 1992 livery. The video ends at George Rose in Havelock Road. We hope you appreciate all the irony and 'fin du siecle' stuff. Enjoy!
