Dear Oliver,
We landed at this pier last Saturday. It belongs to the "Belle Steamers Co." for whom it was built and no other boat lands here. There is another pier a little further on.

Caption: Lowestoft, New Pier from Cliff

Notice that this photo is showing a pile of rubble on the bank and a totally undeveloped cliff and beach. Now we have the Jubilee parade there and the beach extends a hundred yards to the tide line.

For many years there was direct steam boat transportation from the piers to London.
