Central Pier, Blackpool
The Central Pier was opened in 1868, five years after the North Pier and twenty-five years before the South Pier. It is on the Golden Mile about 550 yards south of Blackpool Tower. The most striking feature of the Central Pier, the Ferris wheel, was erected in 1990 after the strengthening of the midsection of the pier.
