There's the Midland Hotel overlooking the bay. It's Art Deco with some Eric Gill artwork in the foyer, there's a nice bar there with great views at sunset. Handy for the Lake District too fyi.

The Town has it's bad areas with a lot of poverty on show one side contains a street taken up nearly entirely by one charity shop co. It's a shadow of how it once was and it's still a single track rail line to get to the town.

The deaths 13 years ago of 23 Chinese cockle pickers who were searching for a "better life" has had a lasting effect on all those associated with the disaster in Morecambe Bay.

That hotel must have had a makeover Cooperman. I was in it a few years back and the rooms were filthy. We survived about 2 seconds in our room before leaving. Ended up in an RAC recommended place across the road from it.

Blackpool. I was in the north west a few years ago so had a look as I was up that way. As I thought, it appeared nightmarish. I wasn't surprised to later find out that there is a greater percentage of Blackpool residents on anti-depressants than anywhere else in the country.
