North Parade Paving

prom paving

Does anybody know why these two large slabs of concrete paving on North Parade have moved? Please leave a comment if you do.

Thanks to Ian Hazlehurst for pointing this little mystery out to me over on twitter.

    May have expanded in hot weather?

    • John says:

      Well, yes I had thought of that too Peter. Some expansion if that’s the case as there’s some weight in those big slabs.

  2. Mark says:

    Where about’s are the slabs are they between the old and new Lifeboat station??

    Just had a look out the window and I think I can see them..

    As much as the ‘expansion’ sounds like a good theory, I can’t see slabs that big moving that much in the sun.

    They were down the front drilling their bore holes a couple of weeks ago..maybe something was disturbed.

      Hi Mark

      They’re between the new station and the shelter at the bottom of Cyldesdale. Maybe it’s workmen who haven’t finished yet?
