"The pier was built in 1900, when it was 810 feet (250 m) and T-end of the extension to complete the distance. At the end, the terminal wind was almost destroyed. In 1934, with the T-shaped end, be eliminated. A series of events took place in the Second World War and a major storm in 1979 further reduced the pier about 100 feet (30 meters).
     A major refurbishment program was started in 1999 in order to rebuild the pier. This was completed in 2001 almost 100 years after it was first opened. In 2002 the T-Shaped end was additionally added, bringing the pier to a total length of 623 feet (190 m). This additional length now allows the pier to accommodate visits by Britain's only surviving sea-going steam passenger ship, the PS Waverley paddle steamer and its sister ship the M.V.Balmoral.
    Whilst many English seaside piers are in decline, Southwold Pier is enjoying renewed popularity. It includes a collection of modern coin-operated novelty machines designed and constructed by the inventor Tim Hunkin."
