Cromer Crab” Fishery, UK Social resilience, place and identity in the small-scale North Norfolk “Cromer Crab” fishery, UK.

Over recent decades, these communities have faced the decline of their fishing industry in addition to demographic, environmental, economic change and a changing policy context in coastal areas focused on marine conservation and economic growth. Using a qualitative case study of a small- scale crab fishery, in North Norfolk, famous for its iconic ‘Cromer Crab’, I investigate place identity and attachment and their implications for social resilience. Like many coastal fishing towns, Cromer has become less reliant on fishing and the future of the fishery, central to the town’s identity, appears to be in question. Although the fishing community has been reduced, the remaining Cromer crab fishermen could be considered resilient. I identify the different livelihood strategies fishermen have adopted in order to continue fishing and explore the trade-offs each strategy involves. However, given the significant entry barriers new fishermen face, the future of this fishery appears bleak regardless of the strategy selected. The conceptual approach used allows the relational dynamics of coastal communities experiencing change to be drawn out, enabling a deeper analysis of social resilience. It challenges some of the implicit ideas in the social-ecological resilience and place attachment literature on collective action. It questions the extent to which fishing communities can collectively respond to change and influence fisheries governance. While the social and cultural importance of small-scale fisheries are recognised in national and European policy, the limited participation of fishing communities in their governance continues to hinder their sustainable development and social resilience. The insights from this case study are particularly relevant given recent changes to the management and use of marine space in the UK and highlights the need to broaden debates on social resilience and sustainable development by considering the governance context and relational dynamics of coastal communities experiencing change.

  • Sheringham Coast Protection Scheme 2009
    Document 7 - Sheringham Coast Protection Scheme The challenge of protecting the coast at Sheringham Facing due north, Sheringham has a well documented history of coming under fierce attack by storm surge seas. Northerly winds blowing across the sea all the way from the North Pole can generate severe storm waves, which must be resisted by the natural and man-made defences of the town. If these defences fail then considerable damage will be sustained. The first line of defence is the natural sand beach and shingle bank to the rear. These are reinforced by the man-made defences comprising groynes, promenades and sea walls, which act as the last line of defence in extreme conditions. In the late 1980’s there was great concern about the integrity of the coastal defences at Sheringham. Waves and tides had gradually removed the once-healthy beach from this exposed stretch of the North Norfolk coast allowing storm waves to attack the man-made defences inflicting considerable damage. The sea walls, groynes and promenades (first built during the last century) have fixed the alignment of the frontage at Sheringham. Consequently, whilst the cliffs to the east and west of Sheringham have continued to erode naturally, the promenades now jut out by up to 70m seaward of the natural coast line. The exposed position of the beaches and defences means they are subject to an ever-increasing wave attack. Research has shown that most beaches in North Norfolk including Sheringham are eroding, getting shorter and steeper allowing deeper water inshore to attack the man made defences.

  • East Anglia Seasearch – 2009 Report
    Seasearch East – 2010 Marine surveys conducted by Seasearch East Rob Spray and Dawn Watson Published March 2011 Seasearch East is grateful for support from: 1 East Anglian Seasearch – 2010 Report 1 Seasearch East in 2010 Despite another year of erratic Easterly winds disturbing the summer calm, we managed to get in some intense periods of diving when the weather was kind. We took our chances when we could and had a week of exceptional visibility off North Norfolk which generated many records and photographs, and helped to spark the now annual media frenzy! Our first record of the year was from a wreck off East Norfolk on the 1st of May and our last was from a chalk drift off Trimingham on 23rd of September. Sea temperature ranged from 9oC to 19oC degrees and dive depth from 1.0 to 33.5m. Several species new (to Seasearch) in East Anglia were recorded; Leopard Spotted goby (Thorogobius ephippiatus), Strawberry anemone (Actinia fragacea), Sagartiogeton laceratus (an anemone), Aeolidia sanguinea (a nudibranch), Stelligera rigida (a sponge), Perophora japonica (a sea squirt) as well as Corkwing and Goldsinny wrasse. Maybe most significant of all was the recording of a whole new habitat – exposed clay – which was densely peppered with previously unrecorded Common piddocks (Pholas dactylus). Plumose anemones were again the most commonly recorded species, followed by the region's signature crustaceans (Shore and Edible crabs and Common lobsters). Velvet Swimming crabs (right) were notable by their absence, the prolonged very cold Spring appeared to have reduced the previously very impressive population to almost zero.
