Soon there will have been 200 years of St Leonards. Recently the question of celebrating James Burton’s New Town was discussed in articles in the Hastings Online Times: ‘The Original DFL: James Burton’ and ‘How should the bicentenary of St Leonards be marked?’.
Below is news of a meeting on the subject on the evening of Monday 5 June at the Horse & Groom, Mercatoria, at 7:30. Please come along if you are interested. The beginnings might – of necessity – veer towards a wish-list, but if alternatively you would like to be kept informed of the project’s progress, please contact jasb200@outlook.com
The view is growing that St Leonards deserves a celebration and a higher profile.
