Eastbourne Pier, Victorian pier in Eastbourne, England.

The 300-meter-long pier extends into the English Channel with wooden decking, zinc-clad roofs, and ornate cast iron decorative elements.

Construction of the pier began in 1866 and concluded in 1870 under the guidance of architect Eugenius Birch, with major additions including a theater in 1901.

The Grade II* listed structure represents seaside entertainment traditions through its theater space, amusement arcades, and traditional British coastal architecture.

Visitors access the pier from Grand Parade and Marine Parade, with facilities including restaurants, shops, and viewing platforms overlooking the sea.

During World War II, the pier served military purposes with machine gun installations and protective camouflage netting covering its Victorian framework.
