This postcard view of the Halfpenny Bridge from the Italian Gardens includes the bandstand; of which Callum Duff tells us: ”Saltburns bandstand was demolished by a bomb in 1940 and I was led to believe that the crater left by the explosion was made into a fountain and fishpond. The fountain & pond were restored in the 1990′s but quickly succumbed to vandalism mainly due to the loss of the resident gardener, some years before.
