As it can be seen by the picture, the beach was smaller and shorter than today.

In front of the houses where the shore ended, the work of channelling the waters of the Rivo Giorgio (George's Creek) goes on, beginning where the road comes down under the pavement of the Priaro Stairway and finally ending into the open sea flowing inside the wharf under the church (called Rivo Giorgio).

To notice also the clock of the bell tower with a single quadrant taking place under the bells.

Towards 1930 a new mechanism constructed by the Company Trebino of Uscio (a small town in the mountains 7 miles far from Camogli), equipped of four quadrants and with the bell hours,  was moved right under the cupola for a greater visibility also from the sea.

The small one-floor construction supported against the wall at the base of the bell tower, where are now the Green Cross Headquarters, will be overstored by two stairs some years later, around 1908.
