The Village Green at Chapel St Leonards cannot be overlooked. After a major re-vamp the area, designed to represent a ship, has a striking ship bell in the centre of the green which chimes every hour. With its well maintained lawns, flower beds and seating area it is a wonderful place to sit and watch the world go by. Solar powered lighting completes the scheme giving a colourful display during the night using the energy it stored during the many sunny days. In August the Village Green will be the venue of a “musical event” sponsored by the Parish Council which will see a number of bands performing in the open air.
One of the longest and finest beaches in the country - and then there’s the beach huts, charming in character and “typically English” in appearance.
