Hastings Commons is a heritage development trust (one of 19 around the country). In that role we support other groups to tackle challenging heritage issues.
Last year we convened a public meeting to try to find a way forward for the much-loved St Mary in the Castle and since then we’ve been supporting a passionate group of people who are driving the project forwards.
We are now looking for proposals from people and teams who are passionate about the building and want to get involved for the long term. For now, we have an initial piece of work to identify options that could bring this the much-loved Grade II* listed building back to life through a visionary approach with a new use of the ground floor arcade and crypt.

At this stage we are asking for statements of interest with links to your previous work and experience on similar projects – please send to drivers@stmaryinthecastle.com asap and by latest 7 April.
