CHAIN PIER – THE LAST LINKS

Another view of the Old Chain Pier buildings which were removed in 1927. The large house in the centre was originally used as a Saloon or reading room, and became very popular during the early days of the Pier. Later, for many years prior to the Pier’s destruction, it was known as Snelling’s Bazaar. Mr Snelling was Secretary of the Pier Company for nearly 30 years. The first Pier Master occupied the cottage West of the Saloon, known later on as Beach Lodge.
