where is the third longest pier at 3,387ftI think it's kent way. Wot is the name of the lighthouse also?
Congratulations to FELIXSTOWE pier on reaching its centenary – it opened in July 1905. Built for the Coast Development Company, its original purpose was as a landing stage for Belle Steamers’ vessels operating between London Bridge and Great Yarmouth. The first ship to berth there was the Woolwich Belle, in transit from Ipswich to WALTON-ON-THE-NAZE and CLACTON piers. The pier was originally 2,793 ft. long, making it at the time the third longest in England and Wales after SOUTHEND and HERNE BAY. It had a 3_ ft. gauge three car electric tramway, able to transport 100 passengers at a time. Two of the cars were withdrawn in 1926, the third remaining in operation until 1939. The pier was sectioned on 30 May 1940. After the Second World War ended the pier was sold and reduced in 1949 to its current length of 450 ft, its original angled hardwood struts being replaced by vertical reinforced concrete supports. Fishermen and strollers used the pier until the decking beyond the pavilion was closed on safety grounds in 1999. It is not known whether any ceremonies or celebrations are planned at this decaying and possibly doomed structure.
