Its a disgrace to Woodspring who are so anti-social with this monument. In its glory this place would bring numberous visitors to this worn out area forgotton by the people who live in weston, my ex-relations as far as i know did work on this pier in the entertainment area and I can remember there being a antique shop and a cafe at the entrance. come you rich people buy this place and put back the smile that this place will offer once restored.

Hi I live in Weston & you are right this is a total disgrace! AND it's not the only thing that's been left to rot...there's the Tropicana, The Dorville Hotel and others...such a shame that the council don't find the money to do the right thing with these but manage to spend a fortune on a DECORATIVE CARROT for the town centre!!! And other equally austentatious but unnecessary doodads when we really need to have the main town tidied up!!

Hi, and thanks for the comments. I too can remember many happy hours spent looking round the lifeboat station. In fact it was the one place that I used to plead with my parents to take me. What a thing it would be to have the attractions backas they were instead of just sold off for a quick profit. I dont think that turning all these landmarks into exclusive and ugly eyesores is in the long term interest of Weston.
