Great British Landmark Fixers: Southend Pier / Yesterday 13 Dec 2021

Great British Landmark Fixers: Southend Pier

Stretching 1.3 miles out into the waters of the Thames Estuary stands the world’s longest pier. Built in 1888 to service the Victorian need to escape the noxious London air, Southend Pier has survived fires, a collision which cut it in half, and the constant threat caused by unexploded WW2 ordnance. However, salt water and iron do not mix, and the pier has seen better days. A committed team of specialists is now working hard to prevent it from falling into the sea.

Remarkable feats of British engineering require remarkable levels of maintenance and repairs to keep them in their grandiose state.

With incredible levels of access to some key restoration and maintenance projects on some of Britain’s most well-known buildings and structures, this series shows the detailed knowledge, craftsmanship and engineering ingenuity that is necessary to keep these important British monuments standing.
