About

Bexhill Old Town & Worsham ward is a primarily residential area in the eastern part of Bexhill-on-Sea. It contains the historic core of the settlement, with streets radiating from the ancient parish church. The topography is characterised by a gentle slope down from the Old Town towards the more modern seafront developments to the south. Housing here is a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, interwar semis, and some newer infill properties.

The ward includes the Worsham residential district to the north-east. A notable local feature is the presence of the Bexhill Museum, situated in the Old Town and housed in a former manor house. Green space is provided by Manor Gardens, a formal park near the museum. The area functions as a local hub with independent shops and services clustered around the historic High Street, separate from the main town centre retail area.
