Hertiage buildings in Winchelsea include St Thomas Church, once the size of a large cathedral and the old Court Hall, now site for the town's museum. Historic country inns, ancient medieval gatehouses, cosy tearooms and specialist shops all feature at Winchelsea. Winchelsea Beach village sits just to the south of Winchelsea centre. The peaceful shingle beach here is fronted by a seawall offering spectacular coastal walks with views towards the Fairlight Cliffs and inland to the High Weald countryside. Winchelsea beach is also a popular Sussex coast spot for windsurfing. | |
