    Was good to see centre pier. Two more to go😁 shame you didn't mention the architecture and construction details. The seating around the edge of pier is superb. The work that went into creating the decorative iron work often goes unnoticed like many other architecture pieces I often always tell people to look up at bindings too and notice things, as we often just really take in eye level sights and miss things. Good videos and enjoy watching them. 👍

    • @AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool

      I do often show hidden architectural detail around Blackpool in my videos, but this video was more about a quick tour of the Central Pier. Look back at some of my videos, and you will see me pointing out old buildings that most people don't notice, as well as talk about the history of Blackpool.

    @maccate6868 Год назад +3

    You can also towards the east the Pennines and Winter Hill. It has always been claimed you can see Blackpool from places in Manchester such as top of Beecham Tower, Town Hall clock and CIS Building but I am sure Winter Hill is in the way. Vice versa it is claimed you can see Manchester from Blackpool Tower. Neither direction have I seen any evidence. Would like to know though.

    • @AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool
      @AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool  Год назад

      Sounds plausible. I could also see Pendle Hill and Longridge Fell. Not sure if you are aware that I took a picture of Blackpool and the Isle of Man from Winter Hill, which went a bit viral back in 2016.

    Mr Wildside, regarding the locks 13:15, it is because of the combined weight of the locks. I believe one of the bridges in Paris was damaged, and when the locks were removed they weighed over 40 Tonnes. Imagine what would happen to the pier with that extra weight on it.

    I love the sea colours it's strange to see grey/brown to turquoise split by a perfect straight line. Wonder what causes such a big change in colour. You'd think the shallower the water the more turquoise it would be and the deeper the water the darker the colour would be but not the case at Blackpool. I say grey/brown as I can only see grey and you see brown. Maybe it's my monitor.
    Thanks for taking us on the wheel👍 you must go up that tower or you'll regret it in time. It's an essential video for your collection😉
