Since 2022, consultants have been working with Holy Trinity Hastings, to develop and secure funding for a £4.5m ‘Heritage@HTH project. The project aims to restore the exterior and interior of the Grade II* listed church building, including the restoration of church treasures that are of national and international heritage significance. Alongside energy efficiency/ sustainability measures, these plans also aim to create a new curated Heritage Experience for Hastings which will include developing multi-media interpretation content with students at the local College for Further Education. They were able to secure seed-funding from the local Heritage Action Zone funding body, which allowed HTH Church to develop a project that is more ambitious than anything they have ever done before. In December 2023, HTH Church received a £479,000 development grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to fully develop their plans and to apply for a full National Lottery grant. Craigmyle will continue be an integral part of this next important phase of the project.
