Such was the force of the storm that the lamp standard was felled by the waves and the Bolitho Gardens (where the loo opposite Lidl's today stands) were destroyed and therefore rendered useless. This shows how far up the waves came to wreak their wicked will!
We were obviously down there at roughly the same time. But this pic is the only one that could be said to be the same; I will post my others soon. I remember this little bridge only too well, and now we have a boring tunnel under the beach. I never did find out what happened to the cannons in the Bolitho Gardens here.
