Above the deck level, the metalwork formed a frame for what looked like ordinary buildings, with walls and roofs of wood. Actually, it looks rather modern in a way, except that modern buildings would have rolled steel frames rather than cast-iron, and perhaps aluminium or glass cladding.

Hello John,

Not quite sure what to think here.  This is very unfamiliar to me.  I
have been on piers before but really haven't seen anything quite like
all this wire framing stuff.  What did it used to look like?
Certainly that would be a very neat thing to see a side by side of the
pier in its heyday and now.  As it is, it certainly conveys a dreary
and forgotten feeling.
