The battle of Hastings Pier; Original architect: Eugenius Birch, 1872, architects for restoration: dRMM [de Rijke Marsh Morgan], by Oliver Lowenstein, published May 2016 in Blueprint (n. 346, article, pp.118-130) accessible at: R.I.B.A. Library
Abstract:Restoration of the fire damaged Hastings Pier, dubbed the 'People's Pier' after attracting much support from the public for its revival. The new visitor centre in the middle of the pier, constructed in CLT, boasts a roof-top viewing platform. A sliding canopy that moves along the pier was part of the scheme and will hopefully be built in phase two of the restoration project.
