Full Gallery of images that I produced during week four of the collaboration week with the original old image to the left. The reason I have added the gallery is that during peer review many commented that they like the direct comparison so felt it appropriate to add them.

This image depicts the boat park, there are decades between the images and although they look similar at first they sow a great deal of variation. The fisherman’s sheds have been replaced, but on a similar foot print. It is the same for the lifeboat station.
Although the water fountain has been removed this location shows very little change. The main difference is the building at the bottom of the road, lost during the war.
Roofs and windows upgraded and a chimney stack removed.
A large Victorian hotel showing the splendid garden in front that leads to the sea. This building has when removed from operation as a hotel became private apartments and the conservatory or covered area added to the front. There is also a bar and night club hosed here as well. Sadly the grounds have become a car park for the block of flats that have been built.
One of the image pairs that show the most amount of change. The cottage inset at the end of the road was replaced after the post-war bombing. Still not new!
