birnbeck pier

This is the old pier in Weston Super Mare, which has been closed since the 90s, it’s away from the main sea front, where it’s just been left to crumble into disrepair.

I posted some of these photos on instagram and Mr Baloo summed it up perfectly “Lovely Lovely Birnbeck Pier & it’s surroundings- where Every day is like Sunday…"

Binkbeck is definitely the the part of Weston that seems most forgotten, I go to Weston a lot, and this is the first time I’ve ever gone over to this side and taken a look at the pier, and I don’t really know too much about it. There is no point me just regurgitating the wikipedia page, but having a quick search it looks like it might be finally restored after years and years of false starts.
