Who looks after this street

Not on the county’s list of adopted roads. Hill Road isn’t named on East Sussex County Council’s map of adopted roads. It may be private or unadopted, it may be named differently there, or it may be a footpath, steps or a twitten rather than a road.

The county’s Highway Land Information Team answers questions about road adoption (highwaysearches@eastsussex.gov.uk, 01273 482 316). For a footpath or steps, the county’s rights of way map and Rights of Way Team (rightsofway@eastsussex.gov.uk).

Parks and play areas

• Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve, the nearest public park or garden: about 320 m to its nearest mapped entrance.

Measured in a straight line from the middle of this street. Plans to refurbish or replace play areas are in council papers and planning applications, not in these maps: search the papers for “play area” or “playground”, and see what developers pay towards them on Developer contributions.
