Weston Super Mare Pier
The Grand Pier project, the result of a competition winning design, was a rebuild of the previous 1903 Grade II listed pier virtually destroyed by fire in 2008.
The Grand Pier project represents a landmark £50 million redevelopment, transforming the site following the destruction of the original 1903 Grade II listed pier by fire in 2008. The project included the design and construction of a new pavilion and comprehensive site redevelopment, incorporating modern facilities while respecting the pier’s heritage.
