    Yes I would recommend going for the Lightpool Festival. I went in 2021 it was fab 👌 I do think it should be on longer it was when I went ❤

    Something quite comforting about seeing the streets of Blackpool at night, the orange glow of the lights down familiar and undiscovered streets of a place I've always loved to visit. Thanks for the video, another fix of Blackpool until my next visit 👍

    Aww thanks on behalf of those of us who for various reasons can't get there, for showing some of the Light pool displays Stephen, know they can be wild and wacky not to everyone's taste but I love them. There was a good write up in the Manchester Evening News today praising Blackpool and the variety of entertainments available. Hope your foot's on the mend.😊😊😊

I had my photo taken outside along with my Daughter. Thr railings have Swallow Birds incorporated in the railings. Its a care home now Built on the site of the factory.

    Looking on street view the loo was still open in 2016 so closed 17(ish) 2018 they put some railings up and the bin has been moved a few times even had a different type before that and up to 2014 no bin , so next the council says it's short of money it's because they've spent it on person hours moving things around in such a small area, and yes they could utilize it for something else.
