Uncle Toms Cabin
The first place in Blackpool dedicated solely to amusement was Uncle Tom's Cabin, perched on the crumbling cliffs to the north of the town. Commercialised in about 1860, the original building was lost to the sea in 1907.
According to the Fylde & Wyre Antiquarian http://wyrearchaeology.blogspot.co.uk/2009/01/crumbling-coastline.html In the 1860s a large field stood between the building and the cliff’s edge but within thirty years, due to constant erosion, only a dangerously narrow path remained. At one hundred feet above sea level the final collapse must have been depressingly spectacular.
A new building was built well away the cliff edge and when the tramway to Fleetwood was constructed it went on the shoreside.
It remains a lively venue.
The nearby tramstop is simply called "The Cabin".
