A Very Rare View from a Water Colour, 1800, of the "Conqueror's Stone."
In its original position at the "Old Woman's Tap." now the site of the Royal Victoria Hotel. The figures are standing on the stone. It is now on the Parade opposite St. Leonards Pier. Tradition has it that the Conqueror rested on this stone on his march to Hastings.
