This is the remains of the promenade pier which was destroyed in the blitz. It was cut down to sea-level and the scrap metal salvaged for the war effort. When it was decided not to rebuild it the supports were removed as well.

Most of the domestic housing running from the pinned area to the lower left corner which had largely survived the blitz was demolished in the redevelopment in the 1950s and 1960s
