History of New Brighton
New Brighton was developed as a seaside resort from the 1830s by James Atherton, who envisaged it as a genteel alternative to Blackpool. New Brighton Tower, at 621 feet the tallest structure in Britain when built in 1898, was demolished in 1921 after falling into disrepair. The Floral Pavilion, restored in 2008, continues as one of Merseyside's principal entertainment venues.
