The six new ‘seaside gems’ awarded Grade II listed status, from Skegness Townhall to Hythe Pier 

The sites include a picturesque boathouse off the coast of Devon that was built to celebrate the coronation of King George IV in 1937, eight of Blackpool's decorative promenade shelters, and a stone obelisk in Southend that marked the City of London's jurisdiction over the River Thames from 1197 to 1857. Hythe Pier, which opened in 1881 and still runs a public electric train dating back to 1922, has also been listed, along with Skegness Town Hall.
