Brighton Piers, Frontierland and Restoration revisited

Last night the BBC broadcast a follow up to the wonderful Restoration series. It followed the progress of certain properties on the Buildings at Risk register. Unfortunately, the winner of the first series, Manchester Baths, hasn't really progressed but some others have seen some real improvement.

During the show the West Pier at Brighton as mentioned and it reminded me of a superb website I found last year by a photographer Sean Clark, It would be a shame to see so many of the UK's heritage buildings go the same way.

Also on a coastal theme I noticed that the Frontierland Remembered website, by Andrew Love, has had an update. It's a fantastic site covering the history and demolition of the site at Morecambe. It's current state hasn't altered for almost 2 years. The website recreates the wonderful atmosphere it once had. A real shame for the town and area.

My website has had an face lift with a new front end and some alterations to existing pages... this may take some time... :-)
