The 2nd picture shows Red Funnel's Lorna Doone berthing in the late 1930s with the pier intact. There is no record of when the collapse happened but after the Second World War the pier was not repaired and re-opened until 1953 when the first call was made by the rather inaptly named Cardiff Queen on a day trip from Brighton on 25th May. |
