OUT IN THE FIELD: Eastbourne divers not on crest of a wave over plans
The Herald Pub of the Year was announced this week and I was delighted to see Heidi Lane at the Crown & Anchor on the seafront clinched the title this year. Heidi has done great things with the pub since taking it over and if you haven’t been there for the delicious home cooked food and hospitality, make sure you do pop in for a festive tipple.
If you’re one of the hardy souls who like walking along the coast from Birling Gap to Eastbourne, do take heed of the warning from coastguards to allow more time after the stairs at Cow Gap were burnt down in an apparent arson attack at the weekend. The access from the headland at Cow Gap to the beach has been completely destroyed so walkers have to continue along to Holywell to reach terra firma. Those who like a stroll should add a good 15-20 minutes on to their journey I am told, to avoid being cut off by the tide and more importantly to save the embarrassment of having to be plucked to safety by our hard-working coastguards and volunteer lifeboat crews.
