About Great Yarmouth
Great Yarmouth has been a working seaport for over 1,000 years and was once the herring capital of the world. The town's Rows — narrow medieval alleyways running between the river and the seafront — are a unique survivor of England's pre-industrial street pattern. Great Yarmouth grew wealthy on the herring trade in the 19th century, with hundreds of fishing boats moored along the South Quay. Today the town blends a traditional seaside resort identity, complete with sandy beaches, the Pleasure Beach amusement park and the Britannia Pier, with an industrial harbour serving the offshore wind and gas sectors. Many Yarmouth homes are exposed to coastal weather, making roofing, guttering and exterior painting a constant priority for local property owners.
