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 1st August for a coach trip along the East Sussex coast!

About the trip
East Sussex sits on the south coast and is part of the historic county of Sussex. It has its roots in the ancient kingdom of the South Saxons, who established themselves there in the 5th century AD, after the departure of the Romans.

It is known for its green hills, weald-land and pretty seaside towns with their fishing heritage.

The ones we will be visiting are:

Bexhill-on-Sea
Bexhill-on-Sea has modern vintage shops, quirky places for art and music, 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, in order 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, located on the seafront. The building was the result of an architectural competition.

Pevensey Bay
Pevensey Bay is an old fishing village founded in the 1600's.
The bay is famed 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 1900's the village became the holiday resort it is today.

Eastbourne
Eastbourne is a very Victorian seaside resort with a maintained promenade and a restored pier from 1870. It also has a 5-mile stretch of award-winning beaches.

It has an art gallery called; Towner Art Gallery, which includes modern British works and the Redoubt Fortress, built during the Napoleonic Wars, which has has a military museum.

Its also known as the sunniest place in the UK,
