Heysham, The Docks c.1915

More about this scene
Heysham Tower was built by T J Knowles in about 1837, and it was the home of the Cawthra family. There was a lodge down in the village, and the estate of about 14 acres was laid out with attractive gardens and woods. When construction started on Heysham Harbour, the family moved out; it was bought by the Midland Railway, who were building the harbour. At the time of our photograph it was an hotel. In 1925 it became the Morecambe Bay Holiday Camp, with 400 campers in this building and another 100 men in permanent tents in the grounds. It later became Middleton Towers Holiday Camp.
