Step right up and experience the thrill of Cartwright's Great Wheel in the seaside resort of Skegness, Lincolnshire, circa 1905. This photograph transports us back in time to an era of coastal holidays and simple pleasures. The Great Wheel, a popular amusement ride, towers over the beachfront, inviting holidaymakers to take a seat and enjoy the breathtaking views of the sea and the bustling resort. The Great Wheel, with its intricate design and vibrant colors, is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the past. Each of the wheel's seats, suspended from the large circular frame, promises a bird's-eye view of the scenic surroundings. The excitement on the faces of those waiting in line is palpable, as they eagerly anticipate their turn to ascend to new heights. The Cartwright's Great Wheel was a beloved attraction in Skegness, a town that became increasingly popular as a holiday destination in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The seaside resort offered visitors a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy the simple pleasures of the coast. With its sandy beaches, amusement parks, and quaint shops, Skegness provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable family holiday. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the history of seaside entertainment and the joy it brought to generations of holidaymakers. The Cartwright's Great Wheel stands as a reminder of the enduring allure of the seaside and the simple pleasures it continues to offer today.
