The Pavilion ………

Destroyed by fire in July 1917, it was replaced in 1922 by a much less elaborate structure, known locally as ‘the aircraft hangar’

A view of the pier after 1917 fire probably 1919-1923 before the art deco façade was added and the Pier middle was widened.

You can see why the Pier Head was nicknamed the Aircraft Hanger.
