Also should have mentioned that in the summer on Sundays a brass band often played in the centre at the end!<\/strong><strong>&#8220;<br><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image courtesy of Ray Brown and thanks to Nigel Anderson for the updates.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n<p>The pier as it used to be at Saltburn, I should be able to remember it like this but I guess the memory is going because I cannot recall it; but doesn\u2019t it look lovely?&nbsp; Now I have been reading about the pier and at one time it was 1.500 feet long and the [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58495","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-saltburn","odd"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58495","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=58495"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58495\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":66245,"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58495\/revisions\/66245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=58495"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=58495"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.image-archive.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=58495"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
