Pier Pressure: Best Practice in the Rehabilitation of British Seaside Piers
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Bournemouth University Research Online Pier pressure: Best practice in the rehabilitation of British seaside piers A. Chapman Bournemouth University, Bournemouth, UK ABSTRACT: Victorian seaside piers are icons of British national identity and a fundamental component of seaside resorts. Nevertheless, these important markers of British heritage are under threat: in the early 20th century nearly 100 piers graced the UK coastline, but almost half have now gone. Piers face an uncertain future: 20% of piers are currently deemed ‘at risk’. Seaside piers are vital to coastal communities in terms of resort identity, heritage, employment, community pride, and tourism. Research into the sustainability of these iconic structures is a matter of urgency. This paper examines best practice in pier regeneration projects that are successful and self-sustaining. The paper draws on four case studies of British seaside piers that have recently undergone, or are currently being, regenerated: Weston Super-Mare Grand pier; Hastings pier; Southport pier; and Penarth pier. This study identifies critical success factors in pier regeneration and examines the socio-economic sustainability of seaside piers. 1 INTRODUCTION This paper focuses on British seaside piers. Seaside pleasure piers are an uniquely British phenomena, being developed from the early 19th century onwards as landing jetties for the holidaymakers arriving at the resorts via paddle steamers. As seaside resorts developed, so too did their piers, transforming by the late 19th century into places for middle-class tourists to promenade, and by the 20th century as hubs of popular entertainment: the pleasure pier. -

Dover and Deal in the Nineteenth Century
http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society RISE AND DECLINE: DOVER AND DEAL IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY By RAIN- WHYMAN, B.Sc.(EcON.) Part IF GROWTH POINTS IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY DOVER EVIDENCE suggests that nearly all the economic and. social indices of Deal were reversed in the case of Dover. As a defensive centre and cross-Channel port the town assumed a growing importance in the eighteenth century. Indeed, a 1721 Atlas specifically pinpointed its castle and the packet boats for France.2 Well before the nineteenth century the Calais and Ostend passages had assumed a major signi- ficance in the life and well-being of Dover, and, in 1805, it was claimed that, 'the money spent by passengers is the chief support of the town' ,3 as against 1811, 'in time of peace this town is a great thoroughfare for persons passing to and from France'.4 Any analysis of the size of nineteenth-century Dover is complicated by the fact that the parish boundary changes in the town have been so intricate that comparable population statistics are difficult to assemble. Various series of figures can be quoted according to the divisions included in the estimates, but in very broad terms the population of Dover increased from 7,709 in 1801 to 41,794 inhabitants in 1901.6 Behind this increase of numbers lay the important functions of Dover as a garrison town, a seaport, a seaside resort, and the principal station on the passage to the Continent, as well as the great works carried on by the state at Dover, from the building of the Admiralty Pier to the completion of the Admiralty Harbour.° Accompanying the growth 'of numbers was an extension of the residential built-up areas. -

From 2011-2013 these interests fuelled a project titled Pierdom (http://pierdom.com), for which Roberts toured the British coastline capturing the country’s 58 surviving pleasure piers as well as a few ‘lost’ piers with an old-fashioned 4×5 inch field camera. In a bid to prompt a countrywide discussion on the historical significance of these seaside struc- tures an unusual national exhibition followed in 2014 whereby 13 coastal venues simultaneously exhibited up to five works from the series, including their most local pier. -
