Disturbance II, Clevedon
- A dip into the archives for this image taken in the Spring to lift the spirits after today's overcast return back to work.
Clevedon Pier stretches gracefully 850 ft into the Bristol Channel. Like all piers it was created primarily as a landing stage for steamers and was constructed partly from discarded railway track used by Isambard Kingdom Brunel on the Great Western Railway. It opened on Easter Monday 1869.
At present, Clevedon pier is the only structurally intact Grade 1 listed pier in the whole of the country.
