Sheringham Seaside Scenes


Home movie of a family at Sheringham beach, on the north Norfolk coast in 1957. The children spend time playing; digging in the sand and splashing about in the sea with Dad. Also on the beach, a crowd gathers to watch the return of the RNLB Forester’s Centenary lifeboat with crew to the boathouse. Later the children enjoy spending time in the playground, on the roundabout and enjoying a push on the swings.
