#nostalgia #digitisedcinefilm #cinefilm #cromer #norfolk #1968 Nostalgia Trip: Cromer, Norfolk in 1968 This film was originally a standard 8mm Cine Film Digitised with a Kodak Reels Scanner. In this thrilling digitised cine film from 1968, we embark on an adventure in Cromer, Norfolk! The journey kicks off on a charming road lined with cottages as a sleek, nearly new car zooms towards our cameraman. Spot the parked cars at the far end! Next, we witness an array of vehicles parked on both sides, and here comes a MOY coal lorry rolling by. As we move along, a bustling market comes into view, followed by the lively promenade and the scenic beach with the iconic pier in the backdrop. Fishing boats are poised next to a tractor ready to launch them into the water, while two men busily work on a boat. Then, we take a stroll down the main street of Cromer, flanked by shops on the right and parked cars on the left, right next to the majestic Church. The road beside the Church features cars on the right and shoppers bustling along the pavement. Finally, we catch a glimpse of people entering the stunning Church at precisely 1:55 PM. However this church isn't at Cromer, it is Sandringham Church. Please Note: According to @dijpurdy from the comments - there are several clips of Southwold mingled in this in the first 45 seconds. The shots at the beginning are of Southwold, near St James Green and then of the market square. The grocery shop is also on the market square, and the family with arms spread out are walking towards gunhill.

Cromer, Norfolk Cromer is a coastal town and civil parish on the north coast of the North Norfolk district of the county of Norfolk, England. It is 23 miles north of Norwich, 9 miles northwest of North Walsham and 4 miles east of Sheringham on the North Sea coastline. The local government authorities are North Norfolk District Council, whose headquarters is on Holt Road in the town, and Norfolk County Council, based in Norwich. The civil parish has an area of 4.66 km2 at the 2011 census had a population of 7,683. The town is notable as a traditional tourist resort and for the Cromer crab, which forms the major source of income for local fishermen. The motto Gem of the Norfolk Coast is highlighted on the town's road signs. Cromer became a resort in the early 19th century, with some of the rich Norwich banking families making it their summer home. Visitors included the future King Edward VII, who played golf here. The resort's facilities included the late-Victorian Cromer Pier, which is home to the Pavilion Theatre. In 1883 the London journalist Clement Scott went to Cromer and began to write about the area. He named the stretch of coastline, particularly the Overstrand and Sidestrand area, "Poppyland", and the combination of the railway and his writing in the national press brought many visitors. The name "Poppyland" referred to the numerous poppies which grew (and still grow) at the roadside and in meadows. On 5 December 2013 the town was affected by a storm surge which caused significant damage to the town's pier and seafront. In 2016, the Cromer shoal chalk beds, thought to be Europe's largest chalk reef, were officially designated as a Marine Conservation Zone. Traditionally, Cromer was a fishing town. It grew as a fishing station over the centuries, and was a year-round fishery into the 20th century, with crabs and lobsters in the summer, drifting for longshore herring in the autumn and long-lining, primarily for cod, in the winter. The pattern of fishing has changed since the 1980s, and it is now almost completely focused on crabs and lobsters. The town is famous for the Cromer crab, which is now the major source of income for the local fishermen. In 2016, about ten boats plied their trade from the foot of the gangway on the east beach, with shops in the town selling fresh crab, whenever the boats go to sea. By 2018, experienced crabmen were having difficulty attracting young people to the business, perhaps because of the long working hours required during the season. Lobster trapping was also continuing. Cromer stands between stretches of coastal cliffs which, to the east, are up to 230 ft high. In 2017 a prehistoric rhino was found in West Runton, dating back 700,000 years to the Cromerian Interglacial.[ Cromer Pier dominates the sea front and is 495 ft long. It features the Pavilion Theatre and dates from 1901. Cromer Lighthouse stands on the cliffs to the east of the town. The tower is 59 ft tall. and stands 266 ft above sea level. The light has a range of 21 nautical miles.
