Looking very good

HAVING moved to Bexhill six months ago, with the long term aim of retiring here, I am somewhat surprised by the strong anti-new promenade feeling expressed in your letters page.

The new front is in my opinion looking very good and I for one am excited and looking forward to the finished project. This weekend when walking on the seafront most of the comments I heard were positive and the children were enjoying playing in the new gardens.

If Bexhill is to survive as a tourist destination together with the businesses which rely on this trade, then the town must keep evolving and I feel the council deserves credit for attempting to do this.

It will not be to everyone’s taste but then neither was the De La Warr Pavilion when it was built but is now seen as a treasure. Give the new look front a chance, you never know it may grow on you.
