A Crowded Beach Scene

1920s

View north along the Seawall and Promenade towards Morecambe Harbour and the old Midland Hotel. The beach at low tide is crowded. Many are wearing best clothes and even children still have shoes on. Baynes Ice Cream stall down on the sand. Many bathing huts but no donkeys. Two sets of funnels in the harbour where Wards have big cranes used for dismantling warships
