Old Saint Helen's Church is one of the oldest surviving buildings in Hastings, England, with origins dating back to the 11th century. This Grade II listed building and scheduled monument features architectural elements from the 11th to the 14th centuries, including a 12th-century tower and remnants of a 14th-century window.

The churchyard holds significant historical interest, containing memorials from the 17th century to the mid-19th century, and has remained largely untouched since the church was partially dismantled in 1870. Currently undergoing restoration funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, the site continues to attract visitors eager to explore its rich history and archaeological significance.
