Description
The renowned North Pier is prominently set in the heart of Blackpool’s central tourist attractions, directly on the seafront and a stone’s throw from the
iconic Blackpool Tower.
It retains its Victorian grandeur and traditional characterised construction with a wooden deck above a sub structure of cast iron girders, cross members and screw piles, providing a significant footprint of circa 13,500 m2. The pier's promenade deck is lined with wooden benches with ornamental cast iron backs. At intervals along the pier are hexagonal kiosks built around 1900 in wood and glass with minaret roofs topped with decorative finials.
The prominent buildings to the foreshore and pier head including the main entrance, arcade, theatre and bar (built in 1903,1939 and 1960’s respectively) help to draw footfall off the Golden Mile, whilst a mix of traditional kiosks, along its length provide various retailing opportunities.
Location
The renowned North Pier is prominently set in the heart of Blackpool’s central tourist attractions, directly on the seafront and a stone’s throw from the iconic Blackpool Tower.
Accessed off the sweeping Promenade, which provides a contemporary seawall and pedestrian walkway and Tram route along the extensive coastline, the Pier is well positioned to capitalise on the popularity of the Town as a key tourist destination.
The surrounding area is dominated by prime draws and accommodation provision, including Blackpool Tower, Sealife Centre, Madame Tussauds, The Winter Gardens, Coral Island, Premier Inn, and Houndshill shopping centre. Blackpool North train station is close by with regular services to Manchester, Liverpool Preston, Leeds and York.
Blackpool is fairly well connected by road, especially for a coastal resort town. It’s accessible from major cities in the North West of England and is supported by key a-roads and motorways including the M55, A583 (Preston New Road), and A584 (Coastal Route).

Pier Head
Widening out at this point (originally in 1874 for an Indian Pavilion) and providing two main leisure facilities opposite one another together with a pier head viewing area with uninterrupted views across the beach and Irish Sea.
