Cliff Lift

Another photograph we have to thank Ray Brown for, this lovely shot of the cliff lift at Saltburn. We were unsure of date; Russell Pigott suggested: “Poor old thing looks a bit neglected in those days, judging by the cars I would say this was mid to late 1970’s. Callum Duff assisted with: “This photograph was taken between 1980 when the amusement arcade was added to the shore end of Saltburn Pier and 1986 when many of the council-owned structures were repainted maroon and cream for Saltburn’s 125th anniversary and subsequent Victorian Week celebrations.” Callum further advises: ”Actually, the date of this photograph could be narrowed further to between 1980 and 1983 when the Tramcars were repainted brown.”
