Plaque

I've removed the reference to the plaque for now, because: firstly the edit summary said that the editor "remembered seeing it there" – this is original research and not an acceptable proof for Wikipedia. But this would normally be irrelevant because the editor added a reference. However, that reference is from a website which is quite old, which in turn refers to an (excellent) book which is 16 years old. But here's the real problem; though there's adequate evidence the fact was once correct, I don't think it is still true. The Aquarium "sun terrace" described is long gone. The plaque would probably be hidden even if it's still there. We need to check this visually, (i.e. recently, not from memory). I know that ironically I'm suggesting more original research, but I think in this case it's really just verification. – Kieran T ^{(talk | contribs)} 22:05, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think this could be put to rest is someone in the area was able to take a picture and upload it to the article. :) --Paul E. Ester 13:20, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A chain pier is what?

You can read the whole of this article, and not know what is meant by a chain pier. Valetude (talk) 23:38, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Chain Pier" is its name, rather than its description. Or rather, its name was officially "The Royal Suspension Chain Pier" (which I wasn't actually aware of until the article was created). I suppose it was thought of as a "suspension chair pier" because of its chain-like supporting cables typical of suspension bridges.--A bit iffy (talk) 18:36, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
