About Fencing in Great Yarmouth
Great Yarmouth in Norfolk built its early prosperity on herring fishing, recorded there as far back as the Domesday Book of 1085, and by the 12th century a great herring fair drew merchants from across Europe to the town, helping make it the fifth wealthiest town in England by 1330. The trade reached its industrial peak in the early 20th century, when specialist boats called drifters landed a record twelve million herring in 1913 alone, but the First World War cut off key export markets in Germany and Russia and the industry never fully recovered, with the last steam drifter sold in 1963.
