A MODEL of Clevedon Pier has been restored.
The pier model, which was created by SKF apprentices, has been a beloved part of The Discover@ Clevedon Pier museum since 2016.
However, the model became unusable late last year.
All hope was lost, until volunteer Brian Chislett took it upon himself to revive the pier model. Brian is a volunteer at Discover@ Clevedon Pier and a member of the Clevedon Men's Shed.
Brian led the revival project. The model now stands proud at the museum.
The Discover Clevedon website reads: "Clevedon Pier was opened in 1869 to receive paddle steamer passengers from Devon and Wales.
"Today it is a focal point for events and educational programmes in Clevedon. It has a unique cafe in the Victorian Pagoda at the end of the pier and is also now a licensed Wedding Venue."
The Discover@ museum at Clevedon Pier is currently open to visitors during pier opening hours with entry included in general ticket price or Pier Supporters Club membership.
