Hastings net shops — 39 tarred wooden towers on The Stade, some dating to the 16th century. Built tall because each plot was only 8 feet wide; the largest beach-launched fishing fleet in Europe needed somewhere to store its nets. The huts are the reason you're there, but the edit kept moving behind them — muddy passages, gaps framing boats beyond, found colour against all that tar: orange fish crates, a faded hull with abstract marks and wild rocket growing at the base.
