Fishermen's Hospital

About

Starting point: Fishermen's Hospital

The unique Great Yarmouth Rows are full of strange and sometimes macabre tales. Hear tales of the wealthy merchants that lived at one end and of the bars and brothels that had their place at the other! 

Taking in the historic South Quay, learn about the importance of the herring industry and of the fisher girls. See where they sang, knitted and worked their passage home.

Some narrow areas included on this walk.

Take a tour of the Lydia Eva after the walk - the last steam drifter which can also be seen in the latest Wonka movie!
