| Great
Yarmouth has a rich and proud maritime heritage and
its prosperous herring fishery made it one of the
wealthiest towns in Britain in years gone by. As a
result, there are lots of beautiful, ancient buildings
to see in the town centre and around the historic
South Quay.
Along the recently restored South Quay visitors can
enjoy the riverside walk and tree-lined avenue. For
a real insight into Great Yarmouth’s past there
is a great selection of museums and period properties
to explore including The Old Merchants House and the
Tolhouse Museum.
The Norfolk Nelson Museum features displays, paintings
and memorabilia relating to the life and times of
Horatio Lord Nelson, one of Norfolk's greatest heroes.
