Battle
East Sussex
11 August 2025
73 aerial photographs of the Abbey, battlefield, village and surrounding countryside

 

73 aerial photos of varying focal length taken from above Battle in East Sussex on 11 August 2025. I have annotated a few of the photos, but I don't have sufficient knowledge of this area to do a detailed commentary.

 

The Church of St. Mary The Virgin

 

 

Battle Abbey

 

The Gatehouse and High Street

 

Battle Abbey School and gatehouse

The church in the distance is St John the Baptist at Netherfield

 

 

The windmill is the Kings Mead Windmill on Caldbec Hill

 

 

 

 

I believe the church in the distance to by Mary Magdalene at Whatlington

 

 

 

 

 




 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The six bloks of flats in the top left quarter are immediately south of The Polesgrove football ground in Bexhill.

 

 

Pevensey Bay, Langney Point and Beachy Head. I need to re-do this photo on a clearer day, when there is no haze!

 

 

I believe the church immediately below the middle wind turbine (at Stone Cross) to be St Laurence's Church at Catsfield.
