27th March

This is what was happening at Victoria Pier on the 27th March in years gone by...

 

1922 The Pavilion and its contents were completely destroyed by fire. Although the Fire Brigade could do nothing to save the building, they were able to minimise damage to the pier apart from the areas around the pavilion.
