Wishing Tree is an electoral ward in the borough of Hastings, East Sussex, England, occupying a mainly suburban, residential slice of the town. It contains a mixture of Victorian and 20th‑century housing, small parades of shops and schools, and a handful of local green spaces, with reasonably direct links into the town centre and the surrounding countryside.
The ward is socially diverse and has grown with Hastings’s expansion in the 19th and 20th centuries; its community life is marked by local groups and occasional regeneration efforts aimed at improving services and amenities. The name itself evokes a local landmark and the area retains a neighbourhood feel despite its proximity to the coast and town‑centre facilities.
