26. _Fairlight Church._--In Diplock's _New Guide to Hastings, St.
Leonard, and the Neighbourhood_, which, unfortunately, like most other
works of this class, is worse than useless to the architectural visitor,
it is stated that the old church at Fairlight, which was taken down not
very long since, "was a small but ancient structure, apparently of the
early part of the _thirteenth century_: it consisted of a chancel, nave,
and square tower, and _was built of brick_."
Can any of your readers inform a visitor here whether this is a correct
description?
