imagine how many sweet hearts kissed on this pier, held hands, walked and talked, bringing their kids back years later, the fishermen catching dinner, all gone, what a shame,
This is so sad I went hear in the early eighties with a girl who I really loved I , it was a beautiful day I have never forgotten it and always wanted to go back I'm glad I didn't.
I just read in one of the U.K news that the local council (authority) ordered the owners to repair the pier. Seems like the only way to bring it back is take everything out and using historic pictures rebuild it. Hopefully it will be saved. It would be a shame to lose it completely.
I had forgotten what a complex of buildings it once housed. A sobering thought though is that even IF, and it is a big IF, the Pier could be restored, a use would have to be found for it. That use must generate sufficient income to maintain it. Any ideas?
Well they could possibly make a nice function room on there. And have weddings and various events... Plus amusements to attract the young peaple to weston.
Yea it would be such a beautiful place to get married! The views 👌💛 the history of the pier is so amazing, I love it, praying for it to be restored ⭐️✨💙
The days the white funnel fleet docked here to take you over to Barry or along the coast to. ultrasound ,lovely trips to ,beautiful pier ,sadly Weston super mare is a shadow of its former days and the markets gone .
Agree with you Anita, really is a shame to see the pier like this,personally i think it has gone to far to be rescued now.maybe that's what the owners want, so they can build expensive housing on the island,
Hi Pete, Thats what I heard the owner was doing just waiting for it to fall so he can rebuild a block of flats on it..... Great to chat with you and your fair lady today on Glastonbury Tor.
Hi Pete, I'm writing from Blast! films, we'd be interested in using some of your footage for an upcoming BBC2 programme- please get in touch at lparkinson@blastfilms.co.uk Many thanks!
Why does 'Re-Visit' have an upper-case V, and why does Birnbeck have an uppercase 'B' in Birnbeck? To me bloody irritating over-music to me, unnecessary, so voted 'Dislike'.
