		The Pier Head is the historic location of Liverpool's landing stages and a trio of landmarks known as the 'Three Graces': Royal Liver Building, Cunard Building and Port of Liverpool Building.
		The Pier Head was originally served by Liverpool Riverside station, the Liverpool Overhead Railway's James Street station and the Mersey Railway's James Street station a short walk away.

	Southend Pier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Pier's centenary was celebrated on 23 July 1935, rather than 1930, as this date reflects the date the Admiralty began to include Southend Pier on their navigation charts.
		Fortunately, the pier museum and railway station were not severely damaged and access to the pier was reinstated three weeks later, with all the debris cleared in time for the summer of 1996.
		In 2003 the shoreward end of the pier was redeveloped in a similar style to the pier head.

		In 1901, the Pier Head Theatre was removed and the new Pier Theatre was opened with a capacity of approximately 1100.
		Piers were designed to be as individual as the character of the particular resort where they were placed, but the primary function of most of them was to provide an area for 'promenading' or 'taking the air'.
		The framework of many piers show incredible engineering skills, and this was coupled with a certain panache that the 19th century entreprenurs had for embellishing and ornamenting the structures.

	My Brighton & Hove \| Palace Pier \| History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		In 1889 the Brighton Marine Palace and Pier Company was formed to erect a new pleasure pier opposite the Old Steine, conditional upon the removal of the old Chain Pier which had been purchased for £15,000.
		The pier was extended slightly in 1938 when a 'big wheel' ride was added at the pier-head, but it was closed throughout the war and a gap was made near the middle to prevent its possible use as a landing stage by the enemy.
		However, on 19 October 1973 a seventy-ton barge, which was moored to the pier during the demolition of the derelict landing stage, broke loose during a gale and severely damaged the structure; the theatre partly collapsed and was never used again, and part of the decking was also wrecked.
