The Last days of Southport's Gasometer

THE massive Gasometer has dominated the landscape for miles around and can be seen from Wales, Blackpool Tower, The Trough Of Bowland, Winter Hill and many other areas. This week the enormous structure is to start decreasing in size as it is demolished. Often dubbed as an eyesore, it will be interesting to see if many of us in years to come will miss the fact Southport will not stand out for miles and miles around... What are your memories about this structure?  Email us to our news room via:-
