Human settlement in England
Ore is a large suburb of the urban area of Hastings, in the Hastings district, in the county of East Sussex, England. Formerly a village, it is still known and advertised locally as "Ore Village". It is located 1.3 miles (2.1 km) to the north-east of Hastings town centre, on the main A259 road to Rye. Its name may have originated from the Old English word for "stream-bank".[2] The Ore Stream still runs through a large central Woodland area known locally as Speckled Wood at the top of the Valley. It is the largest suburb of Hastings.
