BEACH AND VOLK’S RAILWAY

All three photographs probably date from the mid – 1890s, as the skeleton of the Palace Pier appears in one and the remains of the Chain Pier, destroyed 4 December 1896, in another. Note how at that period the sea swept right up to Madeira Drive wall and reflect on how much has been reclaimed from the sea since then.
