The Rising Times

From Historical Hastings

During the mid to late 1970s, the Four Courts high-rise flats once had a community newspaper entitled 'The Rising Times'. Launched by community neighbourhood officer Robert Cunningham in 1976, it went on to be produced from resident Kathy Mckay's flat near the top of Bevin Court. The paper cost £16 per issue to produce, and needed to be self-financing by the third issue[1].
