Pier co-owner Jimmy Norman said work is being done today to clear up debris blown in from the sea caused by strong winds overnight.

He said: ‘The pier came through the night well, but obviously it’s too windy for the wheel to be open at the moment.

‘But we will be back open from 12pm tomorrow.’

The Pyramids Centre has also been closed and updates will follow.
