I am sure that the “promenade” was built of large blocks and for a while we had a comfortable walkway until soon afterwards when the sea destroyed the hard work. A youngster was washed into the sea and drowned whilst clambering on the fallen blocks. If my assumptions are correct, that tragedy would have occurred around 1957?” Can anybody assist further with this detail? Image courtesy of Ken Loughran and thanks to Norman Patton for the update.
