A guided tour of this historic town, showing how the areas you know and love have transformed over the centuries.
Blackpool’s golden sands and sea views have attracted throngs of holidaymakers and tourists since the eighteenth century. As Britain’s premier holiday resort, Blackpool today is a vibrant town that knows how to have fun. The views in this History Tour provide a glimpse into Blackpool’s past, views that show that holidaymakers have long enjoyed the amusements that the town has to offer. This book allows you to go back in time and walk down the streets of Blackpool in the past, comparing the views with landmarks like Blackpool Tower and the Winter Gardens that remain today.

Allan was born in Blackpool and has a degree in Civil Engineering from Sheffield Poly and worked in the Borough Surveyor’s Department of Blackpool BC from 1978 to 1989. His fascination with old Blackpool scenes started in Sheffield in 1975 at a ‘collectors’ fair and has not stopped since. Allan has had several books published about old postcard views of Blackpool. Allan is married with four great children. Ted is a local history author who lives in Blackpool.
