Margate Jetty Art: A Glimpse into the Victorian Past

A vintage postcard depicting Margate Pier in its heyday, likely from the late 19th or early 20th century. The pier stretches out into the sea, bustling with activity, with people strolling along its wooden planks and enjoying the seaside views.

The Victorian Pier:

Margate, a charming seaside town in Kent, England, has a rich history intertwined with its iconic pier. Initially constructed of wood in 1824, it was rebuilt with iron in 1855 and extended over the following years, the pier was a marvel of Victorian engineering, attracting visitors from far and wide. It served as a popular destination for leisure, entertainment, and transportation.

A Hub of Activity:

The pier was more than just a walkway; it was a vibrant hub of activity. Visitors could enjoy a variety of attractions, including:

• Bandstands: Listen to live music performances from talented musicians.
• Pavilions: Explore shops, arcades, and tea rooms.
• Fishing: Cast a line and try your luck at catching fish.
• Horse-drawn carriages: Take a leisurely ride along the promenade.

A Symbol of Seaside Pleasure:

The pier's popularity peaked during the Victorian era when seaside holidays became a fashionable pastime. Families and couples flocked to Margate to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy the fresh sea air and scenic views.

A Changing Landscape:

Over the years, Margate Pier has faced challenges, including storms and structural damage. It closed in 1976, was badly damaged in 1978 and underwent occasionally demolition until the final section was completely removed in 1998.

The artwork below was created by me based on a Victorian era postcard I have in my collection, copies can be purchased from my Colin_picture_this Zazzle store on various products. You can also transfer the design to alternative products of your choosing as required.

A Glimpse at the Past: The Runcorn Transporter Bridge

A Timeless Beauty

This captivating image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the industrial landscape of the past. The imposing structure at the heart of the scene is the iconic Runcorn Transporter Bridge, a marvel of engineering that once connected the English towns of Runcorn and Widnes across the River Mersey.

A Bridge Across Time

Built between 1901 and 1905, the bridge was a testament to the ingenuity of its designers. Its unique transporter mechanism, suspended from cables and moving along a track, allowed vehicles and pedestrians to cross the river without disrupting the flow of water traffic. For many years, it was a vital link between the two towns, serving as a lifeline for commuters and businesses alike. The bridge closed on the 22nd July 1961, the day after it was replaced by the Runcorn-Widnes high level bridge, now the Silver Jubilee Bridge, the transporter being demolished shortly afterwards.

A Changing Landscape

The image also provides a glimpse into the industrial era. The factories and smokestacks lining the riverbank are a stark reminder of the region's economic activity at the time. The bustling port, with its ships and barges, further emphasizes the importance of the river as a transportation hub.

A Modern-Day Landmark

The approachers to the transporter bridge on both sides of the River Mersey still remain today, on the Widnes side of the river the former power house still stands now a Grade II listed Building.

A Timeless Legacy

This evocative image serves as a reminder of the bridge's enduring appeal. It is not just a piece of infrastructure but a testament to human ingenuity and a symbol of the region's rich industrial heritage. As we look back at this historic landmark, we can appreciate the role it played in shaping the lives of countless people and the lasting impact it continues to have on the community.

The artwork below is based on a postcard in my collection and is thought to date from the early days of the bridge. It can be bought on a number of products from my Colins_picture_this Zazzle store, click the image and a link should open in another window.

Rochdale Canal Artworks

 The following pictures - artworks are based on 3 pictures I took on the Rochdale Canal between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge. It was my first attempt at creating a pencil sketch type drawing using photoshop.

The original pictures were taken with a Samsung Galaxy Tablet on the 9th November 2013.

I belive this picture was somewhere near to the medical centre at Todmorden.

This was about half way between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge.

The moorings at Hebden Bridge.

Halifax Branch Canal Artworks

 Halifax Branch Canal artworks is a set of 6 pictures of the Calder & Hebble Navigation spur towards Halifax from Salterhebble Locks. They are digital creations of prints showing various points along the what remains of the canal that used to run up towards the Halifax.

The Halifax Branch of the Calder & Hebble canal is an approx. half mile waterway that stretchers from Salterhebble junction / locks to the Watermill bar at Salterhebble Wharf.

The canal opened in 1828 and rose through 14 locks to end at Bailey Hall close to where the train station and Eureka museum now stands. The Halifax Branch fell in to disuse with the rise of firstly railways and the road transport and the section from Salterhebble Wharf to Bailey Hall was abandoned in 1942 and this has now become a cycle / pedestrian route known as the Hebble Trail with a little evidence that it was once a canal.

These artworks are based on photographs I took in November 2013 with a Samsung Galaxy Tablet.

The 3 pictures above show the canal around Wakefield Road Bridge, which is the first crossing over the canal after it branches off from the main waterway at Salterhebble Locks.

The canal was being worked on when the original picture was taken and had been drained beyond the lamp post on the tow path.

The drained canal at Salterhebble Basin.

The canal again at Salterhebble Basin, the Watermill Bar stands on the site of the demolished Salterhebble Mill.

Sa Polleta des Punset and Entrance to Benirras, Northern Ibiza Artwork

 A short post of a digital artwork I recently created of a coastal scene I pictured in 2014 whilst sailing the northern coast of Ibiza. The scene pictures a rock I believe is known as the Sa Polleta des Punset which is found at the entrance to the cove of Benirras. On the day people were sailing and swimming out to the rock to use it as a diving platform. The picture shows a small boat to the side of the rock.

Willow Hall Dam Autumnal Artwork

This original artwork created by me is based on a picture I took in March 2018 around Willow Hall Dam, Sowerby Bridge. The day had seen a number of snow showers but i'd still gone up to the dam to get out of the house for a while. To the west of the lake are some old abandoned outbuildings -garages that were of interest even though they had nothing particularly characterful about them.

The original picture is shown above. Whilst I like the picture I didn't think that there was enough going on to make it in to an artwork, so I decided to give the artwork below an autumnal look fill of bright reds and oranges to give it a look of breaking dawn, the finished artwork below.

International Football Stadiums of the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland.

 These artworks were inspired by the joint bid by England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland to host the Euro 2028 finals. They were put together for a short video collection - slideshow.

I am currently only sharing these pictures on here, copies are available to purchase from EBay UK if you would like sized 6x4.

Aviva Stadium, Dublin
Home stadium of the Republic of Ireland football and Irish Rugby Union teams, it was opened on the 14th May 2010 on the site of the former stadium Lansdowne Road. It has a capacity of 51700 and cost 410million Euro's to construct.

Hampden Park, Glasgow
Home to the Scotland international football team and until recently Queen's Park FC, Hampden Park opened on the 31st October 1903 with Queens Park beating Celtic 1-0 in a league game. The first Scotland International played at Hampden was against England on the 7th April 1906 when a then world record crowd of 102741 watched Scotland Beat England 2-1. The stadium was extensively renovated in the late 1990's and now has a capacity of 51866. The largest crowd ever to watch a match at Hampden was 149547 for a British Home Championship fixture with Scotland beating England 3-1.

Millennium Stadium, Cardiff
Home to the Wales Rugby Union team and occasionally hosting the Wales Football team now, the Millennium Stadium was opened on the 26th June 1999 at a cost of £121 million. It has a capacity of 73931 and the record attendance for a Wales Football international at the stadium is 73062 on the 19th November 2003 in a Euro 2004 Play Off that saw Wales lose 1-0 to Russia.

Wembley Stadium, London.
England's national football stadium, Wembley was completely rebuilt in the early 2000's and re-opened on the 9th March 2007. The cost was £789million and the rebuilt stadium has a capacity of 90000. The stadium also host's a number of football finals, the Rugby League Challenge Cup final and internationals. The record crowd at the new Wembley is 89874 for the 2008 FA Cup final between Cardiff and Portsmouth.

Windsor Park, Belfast
Home of the Northern Ireland Football team, Windsor Park opened in 1905 and at its largest could hold over 60000 spectators. Renovations in the 1990's and 2015 have led to the stadium now having a capacity of  just 18500. Despite being the home stadium of potential co-host's Northern Ireland, Windsor Park is unlikely to feature in Euro 2028 as UEFA hosting rules require all stadiums to have at a capacity of at least 30000. Hopes are being pinned on a new stadium at Casement Park to meet this requirement. The record attendance at Windsor Park was for a 1-1 draw between Ireland and England in the 1956 British Home Championship.

Lealholm Post Office and Service Station

Taken whilst exploring a section of the Esk Valley Railway, I'd just been to look at Lealholm Railway Station and walking back to the village centre I passed the post office and service station which to serve the village of Lealholm (Population approx. 380) and nearby rural villages and communities. I liked how what looked like a house had become probably a central part of the community.

The picture was taken using a Nikon d3300 SLR camera on the 27 August 2022, the artwork was completed on the 29 August 2022. Both can be seen and purchased on Clickasnap. I am currently working on a 2nd artwork to be completed shortly.

Jumble Hole, Between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge

 Jumble Hole is a wooded Valley that runs down from Blackshaw Head towards Eastwood between Hebden Bridge and Todmorden. Jumble Hole Clough is the water that runs down it flowing towards the River Calder, although historically this was known as Blackshaw Clough.

The water was used to power a number of mills along its path and a few dwellings were also scattered alongside the stream. Water from Jumble Hole was also used in baptisms by the nearby Nazebottom Baptist Church. This waterway is the traditional boundary between Yorkshire and Lancashire.

I was walking along this stretch of Woodland on the 4th May 2022 and whilst passing a bridge over the clough I discovered and abandoned dwelling that I had to picture. I also did a couple of artworks based around the fireplace that still remains. They can be seen below or on my Clickasnap profile where they are full size, resolution and un-watermarked. They were taken using a Nikon d3300SLR camera.

Inside the abandoned dwelling I found. This artwork is based on
a photo that can be seen below.

Jumble Hole Clough, the abandoned dwelling is just to the right
