A couple of the "net huts" on the Stade are fashioned from parts of old boats ... {On Lindisfarne, old boats serve a similar function - and some have been used as dwellings}

hst - East Cliff funicular

Looking up from the Stade at the Upper Station for the East Hill Cliff funicular. Now electrified it was originally a water balance, and the two towers have water tanks as part of that system. I discovered that this is "closed for refurbishment" - late June 2023 - the notices gave no indication for how long this would be, or what was involved in this process. Will edit when I find out.

hst - net sheds

On the stade [east end of Hastings] are these tall sheds. Used for making, mending and drying fishing nets, apparently. Hastings has the largest beach launched fishing fleet in the UK To me, they look more like smokeries - for turning herring into kippers.
