EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Cat Nab in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Northumberland, England, taken in the year 1906. The image showcases the iconic pier, a beloved landmark that has stood the test of time against the relentless waves of the North Sea. Saltburn-by-the-Sea, located near Redcar, has been a popular seaside resort since the Victorian era. The pier, constructed in 1883, was a significant addition to the town's attractions, providing visitors with a place to stroll, take in the breathtaking views, and enjoy the salty sea air. In this photograph, the pier stretches out into the distance, its wooden planks weathered by the elements but still standing strong. The Cat Nab, a rocky outcrop at the northern end of the pier, is a prominent feature, providing a natural breakwater against the sea. The rocky outcrop is named after a local legend of a cat that was said to live there and protect the fishermen. The photograph also captures the essence of the era, with the Victorian-era bathing machines lined up on the beach, ready for use. These horses and carts provided privacy for bathers as they changed into their swimming costumes before entering the sea. This image offers a glimpse into the rich history of Saltburn-by-the-Sea and the importance of the pier as a cherished part of the town's identity. The photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the seaside resort and the memories it holds for generations of visitors.
