Garden lighting in Old Town, Eastbourne

Old Town gardens sit behind period frontages off Church Street and Ocklynge, sheltered from the worst of the coastal air but full of mature trees, brick walls and awkward, characterful shapes. These are the gardens where a handful of well-aimed fittings does more than a whole catalogue of them.

What we typically light in Old Town

  • Mature trees and specimen shrubs uplit to give depth to a small or mid-sized plot
  • Old brick and flint walls grazed to bring out texture
  • Narrow side returns and passageways lit for access without dazzling the neighbours
  • Careful aiming near listed and conservation-area frontages

We also cover Church Street, Ocklynge, Motcombe and the western edge of the Town Centre, and everywhere else within roughly 5 miles of Eastbourne.

Services available in Old Town

  • Garden & Border Lighting

    Low-level spike spots tucked into planting to graze foliage and pull depth out of borders after sunset.

  • Driveway & Pathway Lighting

    Discreet bollards and recessed in-ground fittings that guide the walk from gate to front door without runway-strip glare.

  • Patio, Decking & Terrace

    Warm-white recessed deck lights, wall washers and step lights sized so you can actually eat outside in September.

  • Tree & Feature Uplighting

    Aimed uplights on mature specimens — copper beech, Scots pine, magnolia — set to graze the trunk and lift the canopy.

  • Security & Floodlighting

    PIR-controlled, warm-white floods sited off the eaves rather than on them, so the beam actually covers the garden.

  • Architectural & Facade Lighting

    Bronze and 316 stainless wall lights and grazers for period Meads facades, Sovereign Harbour render and coastal stone.
