Hastings was virtually deserted on a sunny Sunday this weekend with people appearing to follow Government advice over self-isolating and distancing.

These pictures of the empty town centre and seafront were taken at 2.45pm on Sunday, while the shops were still open.

There were a few dog walkers out and about and a handful people enjoying a walk in the sunshine, but they were few and far between.

One shop worker told the Observer: “It has been eerily quiet. There were more people out and about on the Sunday of Storm Ciara back in February.”
