Stored Buoys
Stored Buoys
In a small enclosure between Madeira Drive to the left and Volks Railway beyond the fence to the right. This area was once a small children's playground built on a concrete infill to close the gap between the road and the railway. When the latter was first extended in 1901 the section curved northwards from Banjo Groyne on a metal viaduct, however, the build up of shingle eventually lowered the height between beach and railway until it finally closed in 1940 and disappeared from view.
