More about this scene
Swings, Punch and Judy, and to the left, the Castle Coffee House Refreshment Tent, all served to attract the visitor to this seaside resort. People do not dress up in their finest clothes for the beach nowadays, but one thing that has not changed is the fact that entertainments then, as now, would have you dipping into your purse. Weston-super-Mare sits at the edge of the Bristol Channel, opposite the nature reserve island of Steepholm. Its huge tides mean that holidaymakers may have to walk a considerable distance out across the sands to even paddle.
