Rambles Around East Anglia Part One - Great Yarmouth


Novice filmmaker Brian Cheesman from Norwich enjoyed spending his free time capturing his native East Anglia with his 8mm camera. His collection consists of several reels with the titles ‘Old and New’, and ‘Round and About’, including this film from 1958, Part One of ‘Rambles Around East Anglia’, which doesn’t in fact venture outside the county of Norfolk, concentrating solely on Great Yarmouth, a seaside town with a rich history of both tourism and industry.
