Small station with steep overpass

Pleasure Beach is a cute little station with an old-fashioned decorative roof over the seating area at the entrance, but not much more going on than that. It is at the southern end of Pleasure Beach, close to many of the larger hotels, but apart from that I did not find it very handy and preferred the tram. A big part of that was that the area around the station was hard to navigate due to a lack of properly lowered curbs. It was especially frustrating that the pavements were fairly new and there were lower bits, but they were still a couple of inches tall. I would not recommend coming to the station from Ventnor Road on the other side of the track since the overpass looked scarily steep – I did not even want to try crossing it.
