Seaside Holidays
In the 1800s trips to the seaside became a popular leisure activity, but one many could not afford. Along with the railway, the introduction of cheap paddle steamer services from London to seaside towns meant everyone could take trips to the coast.
These photos and souvenirs are from seaside holidays taken in the 1920s and 1930s.
