  In its day The Dripping Well was an extremely popular Victorian attraction. Charabancs (sightseeing wagons) would leave the monument in Hastings each day to bring visitors to this beauty spot.
  
  Situated at the head of a picturesque, thickly-wooded glen, the Dripping Well, overhung by a huge beach-tree, was a favourite subject for both artist and photographer.  John Logie Baird is said to have drawn inspiration here for inventing television ("seeing by wireless" as he described it). —Compiled [1] [2] [3]

  The romantic Lovers' Seat was located near here but due to erosion only a stone is left in its place.
