West Pier, Brighton: A Timeless Symbol of Seaside Pleasure and Resilience This evocative black-and-white aerial photograph, taken on 17 April 1949, captures the West Pier in Brighton, a beloved seaside landmark that first graced the coastline in 1866. Initially built as a second pier to attract holidaymakers to Brighton via steamer, the pier's head was extended and a magnificent pavilion was added in 1893. In 1916, a concert hall was incorporated into the pier's design, further enhancing its allure. The pier's unique architecture stands proudly against the backdrop of the tranquil blue waters and the expansive sea. The pier's intricate details, including its ornate pavilion and concert hall, can be clearly seen from this bird's-eye view.
