Some interesting info about Blackpool. Blackpool
is a borough, seaside town, and unitary authority area of
Lancashire, in North West England. It is situated along
England's west coast by the Irish Sea, between the Ribble
and Wyre estuaries, 17.5 miles (28.2 km) northwest of
Preston, 30 miles (48 km) north of Liverpool, and 40 miles
(64 km) northwest of Manchester. It has a population of
142,900, making it the third most populous settlement in
North West England, and a population density which makes it
the fourth most densely populated district of England and
Wales outside Greater London.
Throughout the Middle Ages and Early Modern period,
Blackpool was a coastal hamlet in Lancashire's Hundred of
Amounderness, and remained such until the mid-18th century
when it became fashionable in England to travel to the coast
during Summer to bathe in sea water to improve wellbeing. In
1781, visitors attracted to Blackpool's 7-mile (11 km) sandy
beach were able to use a newly-built private road, built by
Thomas Clifton and Sir Henry Hoghton. Stagecoaches began
running to Blackpool from Manchester in the same year, and
from Halifax in 1782. In the early-19th century, Henry Banks
and his son-in-law John Cocker erected new buildings in
Blackpool such that its population grew from less than 500
in 1801 to over 2,500 in 1851. St John's Church in Blackpool
was consecrated in 1821.
Blackpool rose to prominence as a major centre of tourism in
England when a railway was built in the 1840s connecting it
to the industrialised regions of northern England. The
railway made it much easier and cheaper for visitors to
reach Blackpool, triggering an influx of settlers, such that
in 1876 Blackpool was incorporated as a borough, governed by
its own town council and aldermen. In 1881 Blackpool was a
booming resort with a population of 14,000 and a promenade
complete with piers, fortune-tellers, public houses, tram
and donkey rides, fish-and-chip shops, theatres. By 1901 the
population of Blackpool was 47,000, by which time its place
was cemented as "the archetypal British seaside resort". By
1951 it had grown to 147,000.
Shifts in tastes and sensibilities, combined with
opportunities for Britons to travel overseas, supplanted
Blackpool's status as a leading resort during the late-20th
century. Nevertheless, Blackpool's urban fabric and economy
remains relatively undiversified, and firmly rooted in the
tourism sector, and the borough's seafront continues to
attract millions of visitors every year. In addition to its
sandy beaches, Blackpool's major attractions and landmarks
include the Blackpool Tower, Blackpool Illuminations, the
Pleasure Beach Blackpool, and the Winter Gardens. Blackpool
is also noted for its political autonomy, independent of
Lancashire County Council. |
