The third pier of the day today was the charming re-built Victorian pier at Swanage. I liked the details of the cast iron railings and seat ends.
There was a great souvenir shop and café at the pier where I enjoyed a blueberry muffin and cup of tea.

Yesterday I was staying in Great Malvern for a concert, so decided to spend time visiting some piers in North Somerset while not too far away. My first stop today was the lovely Victorian pier in Clevedon. It’s a classy location with a grand view across the Bristol Channel to Wales. The pier itself has been restored to its former glory and it now has Grade I listed status.
There’s a charming café on the Pierhead with a covered first floor building where you can admire the view across the water while enjoying a slice of cake and a cup of tea.
