BUTLINS SKEGNESS - Aerial Views 1977

We are sincerely grateful to PETER R. STEELE who, following an appeal on this
website for photos, sent me the following ones, with permission to share them with you.

LOOKING EAST
This aerial shot is taken facing East, with the Roman Bank flats in
the foreground, the main camp centre, and the sea in the background.
From L-R the buildings are:
Regency, Empress, Queens, Ingoldmells

LOOKING WEST
The plane is just above the Boating Lake, looking West, with the
Queen's Building top right, and the Ingoldmell's Hotel top left.

LOOKING SOUTH
In the foreground, and moving away we have:
Lincoln Dining Room, York Dining Room, Clock Building, Sportsfield

Peter has had a strong connection to Butlin's Skegness since he first went on holiday there in 1973.

Peter's other love is flying. In 1977 when these photos were taken, he was a fourteen year old passenger,

but now he is, himself, a qualified pilot.

What a shame that any subsequent aerial shots he takes will show a totally different landscape.
