Cromer's Annual Waiters' Race


A record of all the fun at Cromer Beach one summer in the nineteen seventies, with (giant) ball games, a race on the water rowing on DIY sea craft, and the annual tradition of the Waiters' Race. Captured by Dr Hugh Miller, a Mundesley man, who often went out with his 8mm camera to record different events on the Norfolk coast.
