The statement: "...the classic architecture of Burton St Leonards" is inadequate. The New Town developed by James and Decimus Burton is a heritage asset whose historic and architectural importance has been recognised by a former Secretary of State. However, this is virtually the only reference to Burtons' St Leonards in the entire document. The "Vision" for Hastings (and St Leonards) should include an historic and architectural assessment PLUS the Borough Council's specific plans and commitment to enhance, preserve and promote Burtons' St Leonards as a tourist attraction and aid to regeneration.
