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
Battle Abbey site with the town beyond
The supposed site of the Battle of Hastings
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.

Gatehouse
School
The remnants of the guest range
