WEST PIER

On this, and the following pages, are photographs of the Pier taken in the afternoon of Sunday September 28th 1975, two days before the Pier closed for good, on the 30th. By then the seaward end of the pier was already closed, from just above the Concert Hall, as in reasonable condition, at least so far as the decking, railings and other things were concerned, but doubtless the supporting piles, girders and landing stages were giving danger signals and in the interests of public safety closure was decided upon.
