Plough Inn

A small half timbered pub on the West Hill near the castle to where a lift goes from the Old Town. It is the last pub in an area that as recently as the turn of the century had five. A friendly community pub, (and 'sister' pub to the North Star in St Leonards), with a large beer garden to the rear. It has four handpumps offering two permanent and one changing guest ale, plus Weston's Old Rosie cider, which is not real cider according to CAMRA's definition. Although Ore station is nearer (750m), it has a lesser service than Hastings station..
