This fiendishly difficult quiz will test your knowledge of British piers to the limit

The arcades walk the line between tacky and delightful, the architecture is usually charmingly Victorian, and the whole spectacle conjures the staycation culture of a Britain gone by.

Most of us still love to be beside the seaside, and without a pier to help us get our fix of rolling waves and bracing breezes, we might have to dip in the freezing British sea.

Here are a few piers to test your knowledge of this summertime staple. If you can get 50% we’ll be impressed.
