Jurassic Coast

Convergence! - Boscombe Pier, Bournemouth

An un-traditional shot from the Jurassic coast. Boscombe Pier is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Bournemouth. It was opened on 29 July 1889 by the Duke of Argyll but was partially demolished during World War II to combat the threat of invasion. It remained derelict for a number of years and was fully reopened in 1962. In 2014, a musical walkway was added to the pier, featuring 88 custom-made chimes that play ‘I Do Like To be Beside the Seaside’ when struck in the correct order.
