Looks like a nice day on the beach today. Pop in to the museum at the Martello Tower for our new exhibition of H.H. Evans art.

There is much more to see inside too. Open 11 to 4 at weekends and Bank Holidays, 2-4pm on Wednesdays.

Looking for something to do with the children? Pop down to Seaford Museum in the Martello Tower and join in our Egg Hunt. It may be windy and wet, but inside the thick walls you won't notice. Plenty to do and see inside, it's much bigger than it looks. Open from 11 to 4 all weekend and Easter Monday.
