Robert Opie and John Penrose MP have opened the Grand Pier’s latest attraction: The Museum Of Memories.
This new area in the Pier will allow visitors to take a trip down memory lane. It features thousands of items bound to transport visitors back to their childhood on a trail of discovery, through toys, sweets, breakfast cereals, memorable television programmes and seaside trips.
From Spangles, Dan Dare and ration books to Watneys Party Seven, Rock’n’Roll and the Spice Girls, this time machine will revive powerful memories of days gone by, as well as vividly conjuring up the lifestyle and culture of visitors’ parents’ and grandparents’ worlds.
