After the Flames: The Grand Pier in Ruins

Step inside a haunting, intimate record of destruction and aftermath.

This exclusive zine showcases 27 never-before-seen photographs capturing the skeletal remains and tangled ironwork of Weston-super-Mare’s Grand Pier following the devastating 2008 fire. With rare access granted by the pier’s owner, photographer Mark Stothard documents not only the scorched ruins but also the raw, gritty clearance work undertaken by the demolition crews.

Printed on beautiful uncoated paper, Croop: After the Flames offers a tactile, evocative experience — a visual journey through loss, resilience, and the stark beauty found in the aftermath. A must-have for collectors of documentary photography and lovers of coastal history.
