Ventnor Esplanade and paddling pool

 Ventnor Esplanade taken around a decade later, look how much closer the paddling pool was to the bridge above the cascading waterfall, and the adjacent boating lake which in recent times has now become a car park.

This car park area is now subject to being sold off by the local Council and a proposal is being considered for a Marine Industry on this land, for further details see Ventnor Eastern Esplanade page.
