The Anonymous Widower

Southport

Southport surprised me, as it was very much more upmarket and a lot larger than I had thought.

I took these pictures as I walked to the hotel in the evening and back to the station in the morning.

The Southport Central Premier Inn was about a mile from the station, which was an easy twenty minute walk.

To get a better handle on where I walked, this Google Map shows the distance.

I suspect there is a taxi, if you want one.

Several things impressed me on my brief visit.

• The station, which was effectively just another large shop in the main Shopping Centre.
• The size of the war memorial.
• The Marine Way Bridge.
• The walkway to the pier, which in the morning was busy with people keeping fit.
• Most of  the chains, that do acceptable gluten-free food seemed to be represented.

I shall return.
