Whitley Bay, Northumberland: The Links and Spanish City, circa 1914 - A captivating glimpse into the past, this photograph showcases the enchanting seaside resort of Whitley Bay in Northumberland, England, as it appeared around a century ago. The image, taken circa 1914, captures the picturesque scene of The Links, a vast expanse of lush, green grasslands that stretch towards the shores of the North Sea. The gentle curve of the sandy beach is dotted with sunbathers, enjoying the warm rays of the sun on a beautiful summer day. In the background, the iconic Spanish City dome stands proudly, a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the era. This Grade II listed building, originally designed as a pleasure park and amusement arcade, was a popular attraction for visitors to Whitley Bay. The intricate detailing of the dome, adorned with colorful tiles and ornate patterns, adds an air of sophistication and charm to the scene. The calm, tranquil waters of the North Sea gently lap against the shore, creating a soothing symphony of waves that adds to the serene atmosphere of the photograph. The clear blue sky, dotted with fluffy white clouds, completes the idyllic scene, making it a perfect representation of a bygone era. This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique and fascinating glimpse into the history of Whitley Bay and the rich heritage of Northumberland's coastline. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures and joys of a time long past, when life moved at a slower pace, and the beauty of nature was the greatest attraction of all.
