Bexhill Maritime achieved its first major objective on Wednesday 6 December 2023 by taking delivery of
the iconic tower.
It had been sitting on the quayside at Shoreham port since October. On Tuesday 5 December it was
lifted onto a trailer by Coussens Cranes of Bexhill and gently laid on its side.
The following day it was transported by K Drury and Sons of Hurst Green to its new temporary home at
Ibstock in Turkey Road.
It will remain there in secure storage and under wraps until it can be placed in position on East Parade
where it will form the focus of the new maritime centre.
