Overview

Hastings is famous for the battles that were fought there and most visitors tread the well-worn paths without realizing the area’s wealth of history. The Hastings Hundreds were established after the conquest and consisted of a collection of villages. Each Hundred was allocated to a knight loyal to the king and contained 100 families. There are thirteen tracts in all, and each chapter in this fascinating account covers a different local area. The book tells the story of each of the zones, giving details of what there is to see and do. It will hold great appeal for all interested in the history of Hastings.
