This is a surprise, Belgium still has beach huts on the sandy beach of De Panne






I thought they had went extinct after the Edwardian period

  1. No! They're still in use in some European countries! There are a lot in English beaches.

    1. but I posted these, because they have wheels. That's the theme of my blog, cool things with wheels. And the Victorian ones I'm familiar with had wheels, and since I thought that they all disappeared 100 years ago, I was surprised to find the ones I posted. The ones you sent me the link to are buildings, no wheels
