Blackpool Pleasure Beach was founded in 1896 when the forty two acre site on which the Pleasure Beach now stands was purchased. Various rides, including the still popular Sir Hiram Maxim Flying Machines, were introduced to the area. The First World War curtailed further development of the site until 1921 when it became possible to import new rides from the USA.
