More about Covid or Lockdown Musicians

In these unprecedented times, weddings and parties have had to be rearranged. With limitations on the number of people at gatherings, many people are choosing smaller ensembles to provide musical accompaniment at their wedding or party. Instead of a string quartet, why not book a harpist - or perhaps a swinging jazz duo instead of a function band?

About Hastings

Visionary business people, generous citizens and responsive government, all have made their contributions to the establishment and growth of Hastings. While they weren’t aiming to develop "one of the 100 Best Small Towns", they were determined to make the city a viable business base and a pleasant living environment.

However, Hastings is really famous for the The Battle of Hastings, which was to shape the future of Medieval England. However, the battle took place about seven miles from Hastings - so in many respects it is misnamed. Why, then was the Battle of Hastings so-called? In 1066, Battle was an important area. Even in the Domesday Book, this part of Sussex was valued at £48 before the battle and £30 in 1066 itself. Compared to other parts of Sussex, Battle was wealthy. However, the title Battle of Battle would not have worked, and for convenience sake, the nearest large town was selected - Hastings. The battle itself was fought by the current Battle Abbey - however, the main thrust of the battle concerned Harold's position on Senlac Hill, a short distance from the current abbey.

The particular importance of the battle was that in the 11th Century, the coastline of Sussex was different to that of today. The coast was nearer to Battle than it is today and the only major 'road' that linked Hastings to London went through Battle. If Harold held out at Battle, William would have had great difficulties sustaining his campaign. If William won, he would have control of the only proper 'road' to London - the heart of England.
