Egremont, Promenade 1898

More about this scene
If we look closely at our top photograph, we will see that the turrets and tower of the New Brighton Tower building are missing. Though it opened in 1898, the building was not completed until a year later. Our bottom photograph is from 1902, and though the tower building is complete it was not to last much longer. The name Egremont was given to a big house built by John Askew, who bought land here. He called the house Egremont to remind him of where he was born in the Lake District. He also had a hand in developing New Brighton.
