The Decline of a Victorian Attraction

Weston-super-Mare...



It's not doing well. Lots of shops shutting, places 'To Let' are in abundance.



 .Pyronaut's solution to the big decline?

Build car parks for people visiting the town about a mile from the seafront. This means that visitors then walk through the town to get to the Sea Front.

Why make them walk?

1. They will walk past businesses, i.e. businesses can set out their wares and flog them to the passing tourists, all be it a latte and a croissant, a 'Kiss Me Quick' hat or a souvenir of WSM.

2. It takes longer to get to the Sea Front, so the disappointment of seeing the mud is delayed.....
