Question About Piers

[DJ Leon]

Thank you J M W Turner:

Southend claims to have the longest pier in the country....but I've seen much bigger Piers than that.

 

[New York Geezer (2)]

I recall a story a while back about new, bigger (river) Piers for London - any connection here?

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Two questions:

1) Where exactly was the Chain Pier situated? I don't have time to look at My Brighton and Hove at the moment.

2) Is the new Quadrant worth going into for a few ales? It looks okay from the outside, but I haven't been in yet.

a) on reflection, I have no idea.
b) Yes - very nice. Loos can be tricky to get to if you're in the upstairs bit though.

I like the picture of the daddy long-legs contraption, it even has a small life boat, wouldn't be too optimistic about being able to get into it if the whole thing was knocked over by a large wave.
