About

Ore ward lies on the eastern fringes of Hastings, characterised by a mix of residential streets and elevated green spaces. The area is anchored by Ore Village, a local centre with essential shops and services. Its topography is defined by the rolling landscape that rises from the town, offering broad views over the surrounding area. Housing here includes a variety of styles, from Victorian terraces to more modern developments, catering to a settled community.

A significant feature is the presence of Ore Tunnel, a disused railway passage that cuts through the hillside, now forming part of a pedestrian and cycle route. The ward contains several parks and allotments, providing recreational space. Public transport links connect it to Hastings town centre and beyond, supporting its role as a residential suburb with its own distinct local identity.
