From the late 1900s, Blackpool grew to support a growing tourist industry and with this we saw a lot of changes.
Whilst the Tower and piers have remained, some buildings and places that we have fond memories of have gone or been replaced.
In this talk, author Allan Wood, will explore a changing Blackpool and some of its lost venues.
