Azimuth Sculpture in Eastbourne
Discover Stories by the Sea

Interactive Scultpure at the Redoubt Fortress
The ‘Azimuth’ interactive sculpture uses giant sections of reclaimed sea defences, sculpted by decades of exposure to the waves, to conjure up images of long lost shipwrecks or even the ribs of a mythical sea creature.
With historical events and stories inscribed on the reclaimed wood, discover tales of life on the coast, life on the sea and be transported back hundreds of years to witness the Norman fleet sailing to Pevensey, the Spanish Armada on their way to battle the English Navy and the First World War Airships patrolling this coastline.
Azimuth can be found on the promenade by the entrance to the Redoubt Fortress.
