AN end-of-the-pier show with a difference is coming to the region. Saltburn Pier, the North-East's sole surviving pleasure pier, is next month playing host to an exhibition that features large-scale photographic panoramas of the Britain's 54 remaining pleasure piers.
Salford University lecturer Lawrence Giles has spent three years creating the exhibition, taking more than 10,000 separate images.
Taken on and around each one of the piers over a period of hours, the photographs are then fused together to produce timescapes.
A marketing campaign highlighting the exhibition has been launched by Redcar and Cleveland Council. It is working in partnership with the Friends of Saltburn Pier, which has commissioned the exhibition.
Friends' chairman Norman Bainbridge said: "I think it's an excellent idea and we are looking forward to seeing it.''
The exhibition, called Time and Tide, runs from June 11 to August 9.
