Deckchairs on Great Yarmouth Beach
An interview with Mrs Fowler about Great Yarmouth Beach
By Laura Matthews
During the 1950s & 60s Great Yarmouth beach was packed with holidaymakers: building sandcastles, swimming in the sea and lounging on deckchairs enjoying the sunshine.
Transcript for 'Audio clip from an interview with Mrs Fowler':
Mrs Fowler remembers how busy the beach used to get during the summer months.
"Very busy, very popular, in between the two piers used to be absolutely packed. The deckchair man Mr Dusty Miller, he used to, all his deckchairs were always out, always, and you couldn't put a bin where there wasn't people lounging about in deckchairs."
