The Spanish Flu in Blackpool, 1918-19
...Last year the rates were increased by 6d., and the amount
raised had proved quite sufficient to keep the town going.... There was much larger
income from the cemetery than estimated, but that was due to the two influenza
epidemics which had been general througout the world, and which had carried off
more than had been killed in the [1914-18] war.
There had been more deaths from influenza at Blackpool than
the number of their local men who had been lost during the war.

FINANCIAL POSITION. Second Lowest Rated Town in England. RATES ONLY 6s. 6d. IN THE
POUND." Lancashire Evening Post - Tuesday 03 June 1919

EXCITING PLANS FOR A MODERN
MUSEUM
"Blackpool Museum was originally going
to be in the Horseshoe Theatre in the Winter Gardens. In July 2017 it was decided
that the costs to develop the Museum there were too large. However, that was far
from the end of the story. Behind the scenes, the team put together a Plan B for
the museum."
