EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage image of Blackpool North Pier in 1890, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This photograph offers a tantalizing glimpse into the past, transporting us to the bustling seaside resort town of Blackpool during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The pier, a popular attraction since its construction in 1865, stretches out into the Irish Sea, dwarfed by the vast expanse of water and sky. The intricate ironwork and ornate details of the pier's structure are on full display, with the pier's pavilion and grand entrance illuminated by the warm glow of lanterns. In the foreground, a collection of paddle steamers and boats are moored, waiting to take passengers on excursions to explore the coastline or venture further out to sea. The steam-powered ships, a common sight during this era, add to the industrial charm of the scene. The seaside town of Blackpool was a popular destination for day-trippers and holidaymakers during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and this photograph captures the essence of the excitement and adventure that drew visitors to the Lancashire coast. The pier, with its amusements, music halls, and promenade, was at the heart of the action, providing endless entertainment and opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment. This stunning image is a testament to the rich history and charm of Blackpool and its pier, offering a glimpse into a bygone era and a reminder of the enduring appeal of the British seaside.
