Did you know? - 31st Oct 2008 6:33pm
With apologies to the anyone who might be offended, but did you know that before they built Marine Promenade the sand used to come right up to the bottom of Rowson street in New Brighton.
This part was known as "Niggers hill" in either Victorian or Edwardian times. I can only assume it was called that because the minstrels probably performed there. Not nice but times were different.
Any more did you knows that we might not know?
