I go on the hunt for the famous £1 burger in Blackpool! Join me on my search for a bargain lunch in the iconic seaside town of Blackpool in the north west of England. See what I make of the famous £1 burgers on offer in the town and hear my reviews. I take a walk along Blackpool's sea front and check out some of the famous sites such as Blackpool Tower, Blackpool's north pier and see some of the historic trams go by.
Blackpool was originally a small hamlet; it began to grow in the mid-eighteenth century, when sea bathing for health purposes became fashionable. Blackpool's beach was suitable for this activity, and by 1781 several hotels had been built. The opening of a railway station in the 1846 allowed more visitors to reach the resort, which continued to grow for the remainder of the nineteenth century. In 1876, the town became a borough, and by 1951 its population had reached 147,000. Blackpool's development was closely tied to the Lancashire cotton-mill practice of annual factory maintenance shutdowns, known as wakes weeks, when many workers chose to visit the seaside. The local climate is mild and rainy also in summer.
In the late 20th century, changing holiday preferences and increased overseas travel impacted Blackpool's standing as a leading resort. Despite economic challenges, the town's urban fabric and economy remain centred around tourism. Today, Blackpool's seafront, featuring landmarks such as Blackpool Tower, Illuminations, Pleasure Beach, and the Winter Gardens, continue to draw millions of visitors annually.[2] The town is home to football club Blackpool F.C. The team has one major trophy, winning the 1953 FA Cup.
