Bournemouth: land-train shed

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 3 Nov 2007

A new home for the Image which runs between the Pier and Southbourne. See Image It was erected without planning permission and it is, apparently, ½m too high. The council's Leisure Services department are trying to get retrospective planning permission; they have failed once but are trying again, this time pointing out that the beach huts which previously occupied the site were hardly any shorter, and that the extra ½m will allow the shed to accommodate the vehicles for many years to come.
