Guiding Principles
The vision for the regeneration of Hailsham Town Centre is to create a welcoming, inclusive and impressive design that draws on the history of the town and enhances its surroundings, whilst creating:
- Exciting new shops, restaurants and cafes
- Open public spaces safe and accessible for all
- Major economic investment in Hailsham
- New affordable and family sized homes
- Exercise and leisure facilities
- Community space for local groups
- Invigorated evening economy
- Connectivity and sustainability
To do this, seven key design principles were created to guide the three masterplan options created for Hailsham Town Centre.
These guiding principles have been developed using the responses received in the 2019 consultation as well as further reviews of existing evidence and a design and heritage review of the town centre. These documents are available to view in our supporting documents.
