This was a fun but very cold day wandering about Weston Super Mare in early January 2026. I arrived early when there weren’t many people about and found some lovely light. The town developed as a popular Victorian seaside resort but is a little down at heel these days. There are two piers in the photos: the modern one with its arcade and an older pier up the coast that has fallen into disrepair. In 2015, Banksy built his temporary, dystopian “bemusement park” on the site of an old lido in Weston Super Mare.
