More about this scene

This hotel was notable for its Art Deco design. This stretch of the coast developed long after Blackpool; with the coming of the tram system, there was much rivalry to purchase land for hotels, hydros and houses. The Bispham cum Norbreck Ratepayers Association and Gynn Estate residents were vocal in the early 1900s about gas supply and cliff erosion.

What a joy to see the stained glass window again. Every childhood Christmas with my beloved mum & dad, my brother and I would enter the fancy dress competition in this very room. Also we eagerly awaited the arrival of Father Christmas, coming down the lift!! So many families we met year after year, every Christmas, catered for by Jean Coleman and her husband. Thanks to Mum and Dad for the most wonderful memories.
