The first seaside holiday started in the year 1700s.
The first British seaside was in Scarborough.
Seasides became popular in the 1840’s.
Victorian people did not like to show their bodies so they would get changed in the bathing machines and be led by a horse into the water without being seen.
Silver
The 2 facts I have learnt are the donkey rides have been popular since the Victorian times and fishes are caught in the nearby sea to make yummy fish and chips for when people visit the beach.
Gold
The seasides are better now many people can come visit or stay at the beach, they can now travel by train, car a bus. There are so many things to do now such as the arcades, have different activities for people to join in when they visit or stay.There are many gifts shops for people to buy for their family/ friends.
In Victorian times the seaside were a lot cleaner as there were no litter on the beach as there were no packaged sweets or chrisps as the people back then had very little money
The things that have not changed from then and now is they still have donkey rides, people still enjoy eating ice creams and build sandcastles.
I have really enjoyed reading up about the Victorian seaside.

I think people that went to the seaside was better in the Victorian days because you get to change your in to your swimming costume in huts. They look like little houses I also think now is fun to go to the beach because you have fair rides there. I love fast rides, it’s better than just walking around.

Evie enjoyed the whole story. It was better in the Victorian times because you get to have a beach bathing machines. My most favourite about the beach is because it’s very warm and it is very sunny.

Bronze:
The first seaside holiday started in the Year 1700.
The first British seaside holiday was in Scarborough.
The seaside holidays became more popular after the railway invention in 1840.
Bathing machines were used for victorian people who did not like to show their skin.
Gold:
I do not agree because only rich people could afford to go to the seaside so poor people were not able to have a chance to visit the seaside. Nowadays everyone can go to the seaside. Also, there are rides on the beach and you can make sandcastles on the beach. There are also lots of food to eat. People nowadays are also not afraid to show their skin and express themselves at the beach. You can even go swimming!
Platinum:
Palace- A big castle.
Popular- When a lot of people like something.
Invention- A new thing.
Cuisine: Food.
Significantly- Something that has changed a lot.
Promenade- Paved public walk.
