Thanks for posting that. I live on Egremont Prom, but can't quite place where this is.

Could you email me or point me at a larger, high res version? Ta.

Thanks, obvious now you point it out (the Ferry pub would have been just behind the photographer). I live at the other end, where it changes from Egremont prom into Magazine prom.

Lovely sand, in fact quite surprising! Interestingly,unlike the first picture, there is no sign of the tower. Would it have been out of view from that angle?

Judging by the clothes Granny, the Tower would be well gone when this was taken
