The West Hill Lift, first opened in 1891, retains its original wooden Victorian coaches. It runs through a tunnel, very unusual for a funicular railway!
The lift's charming lower station is in traffic-free historic George Street which is full of independent cafés, pubs, art shops and bookshops.
The West Hill itself offers some of the town's most remarkable views, stretching round to Beachy Head in the west and out across the English Channel. You'll also find Hastings Castle and Smugglers Adventure (please check opening times).
If you're looking for things to do in Hastings and 1066 Country, visiting both the East and West Hill Lifts is a must.

The machine is in the lower ticket office. Designs are:
1) 1066 Country Hastings,
2) Hastings Castle (castle),
3) Bayeux Tapestry (tapestry detail) Hastings,
4) West Hill Lift (entrance) Hastings.
