One of two piers in Portsmouth, South Parade is a classic English pier packed with amusements, food outlets and souvenir shops. It underwent complete renovation in 2017 after having fallen into disrepair and is now a lively place, particularly in the summer. It was originally opened in 1879 and has undergone a rather tumultuous history with fires, innumerable sales and being used as a film location.
