What reading level is Hastings And Neighourhood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A castle was built, and full provision made for the resumption of the commerce of the port.
The various religious houses were reproduced as in the dead town, and ere long the lusty life of the old place began again in earnest. The town became self-supporting with its shipbuilding and fishing, and its galaxy of representative craftsmen, and offered a splendid channel for trade to and from the mainland. Being a serviceable defensive port, it rehabilitated itself as a rendezvous for the navy, and ...combined with that importance the added attraction of being the best base on the coast for pirates. So well was the latter occupation organized that we read of one of the mayors of the town — one Robert de Battayle — being caught red-handed and summarily punished for acts of piracy.
And what remains? Very little. At the northern end certain of the spacious streets are inhabited but generally grass-grown. These show the original divi- sions and dimensions; but southwards and westwards the majestic squares have become merely green fields, until at last the boundaries have been lost altogether.
