Description
An aerial photograph taken in July 1941 shows a road barrier across the east end of Old Pier Street. It appears as four rows of staggered dots between the corner buildings where it joins The Parade. An aerial photograph taken in July 1946 shows the dots still faintly visible.
Nothing of the barrier now remains. <1> <2>
