AI要約 クロスビービーチ（しばしば「ブリッツビーチ」と呼ばれる）の瓦礫には、1941年の第二次世界大戦の爆撃による被害と、1960年代/70年代の再開発による瓦礫の両方が含まれています。主にリバプール/ブートル・ブリッツの瓦礫の投棄場所として知られていますが、海岸線の浸食を防ぐために、戦後のスラムクリアランスプロジェクトからの材料も使用されました。 1940年代の資料：1941年のブリッツ直後に堆積された初期の瓦礫には、レンガ、ビクトリア朝のタイル、石彫、破壊された家屋やランドマークの建築的遺物が含まれます。 1960年代以降の資料：戦後の解体プロジェクトからの後続の埋め立てが、元の戦争時の瓦礫の上に層状に重ねられました。 敷地の性質：この材料は、構造工学のためではなく、主に産業廃棄物を管理し、海岸線を保護するための費用対効果の高い方法として意図されていました。

This area is now becoming INCORRECTLY named the Blitz beach. It was actually formed with demolition material from 1960's redevelopment in Liverpool and has nothing to do with the 1940/41 Blitz. It also contains material from the demolition of Fort Crosby in 1967. It's an indication of the power of Social Media that such a misunderstanding is taking a hold. Please stop using the term Blitz Beach because it isn't.

Beltin pub for a bite and pint, just off Cheshire Lines path.

"Southport Pier opened in August 1860, it is the oldest iron pier in the country. Its length of 1,108 m (3,635 ft) makes it the second-longest in Great Britain, after Southend Pier. Although at one time spanning 1,340 m (4,380 ft), a succession of storms and fires during the late 19th and early 20th centuries reduced its length to that of the present day. The pier has been host to famous entertainers, including Charlie Chaplin in the early 20th century. It was visited by steamliners in its heyday, but silting of the channel meant that by the 1920s very few steamers were able to reach the pier, and the service ceased in 1929. The pier fell into disrepair throughout the late 20th century, and by 1990 it was operating at a significant annual loss with rising maintenance costs. The local council sought to have the pier demolished, but were defeated in their attempt by a single vote. The pier was significantly restored during 2000–2002, and opened to the public in May 2002. The Southport Pier Tramway ran from Southport Promenade to the pier head at various times in the pier's history with various rolling stock, most recently until June 2015. The pier is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building, first listed on 18 August 1975." Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southport_Pier
