The Mount 1902

In 1902 the new Mount Pavilion opened and soon became a focal point for local people and visitors alike. It was not unknown to see people rolling hard-boiled eggs down the side of the Mount at Easter. Esau Carter Monk, one of the first town commissioners, dispensed refreshments.

The Original Mount Pavilion

The Mount is the largest of a range of sandhills that once ran along the coastline at Fleetwood. In those days the whole area was open land with a few farms and no habitation.

Originally called Tup Hill or Starr Hill, it was a traditional meeting place before Fleetwood was built. The original Chinese pavilion on the Mount, also known as Prophet or Temple View, which adorned the summit was designed by Decimus Burton and replaced by the present structure in 1902.
