Another view of the River Derwent and the Promenade taken before
the road was widened. It probably dates from the 1920s.
Of interest is the thatched wooden kiosk on
the right next to the boundary hedge - one of the four
on the "prom". These acted as ticket offices / money collection
points during the tourist season. There is an enlargement
below and part of the ornate Edwardian turnstile is just
about visible behind the kiosk.
When the road was widened in the late 1960s the kiosks
disappeared, although it was rumoured that at least one
of them was to be restored. |
