Thanks to Peter Wilson for this photo taken in June 1957 showing a packed beach. I’ve never seen the beach so busy …was there a heatwave in 1957?
That chap in the foreground wearing sunglasses looks like he’s enjoying it

We moved to Meols in 1975 and I remember large numbers of people on the beach, though not as many as in this photo!
Cheers, Richard
We moved to West Kirby in 1952 and the beach at Hoylake was always this crowded at the weekens when it was sunny. But we spent all our time in the Baths.
