Group from Vision Norfolk at Time and Tide Museum in Great Yarmouth

Great Yarmouth hub group visit Time and Tide Museum

A group from the Great Yarmouth hub had a special visit to the town’s Time and Tide Museum.

The museum, which tells the story of Great Yarmouth from sandbank to thriving port and seaside resort, occupies the premises of the Tower Fish Curing Works, orginally built in 1850, and which closed in 1988.

The £4.7 million development opened to the public in 2004, and has been a finalist in both the Gulbenkian Award – Museum of the Year and the Council of Europe’ Museum of the Year.  It tells the story of teh town and its herring industry, amid lingering aromas of teh former smokehouse.

The Vision Norfolk group were given a special tour allowing them to touch exhibits and make the most of the museum’s collections.

Two photographs side by side. On the left: Photo shows a rugged, eroded cliffside under a cloudy sky. In the foreground, the ground is uneven and rocky, with reddish-brown soil and chunks of stone scattered around. Some areas look freshly exposed, as if rain or wind recently washed parts of the earth away. There’s a small patch of muddy water near the bottom of the scene. In the background, the cliff rises sharply upward. Its face is light beige with dark grey and brown layers running through it, showing how the earth has built up over time. The top of the cliff is covered with a thin layer of green grass and small patches of yellow wildflowers. Deep cracks run down parts of the cliff, hinting that pieces might eventually break off. On the Right: Photo shows a black and white close up image of a wooden groyne with 6 small pebbles stuck in the small gap of the groyne through the larger gap at the top of the picture you can just make out the clifftop.
