  • History of Royal Cromer Golf Club Established 1888
    History of Royal Cromer Golf Club established 1888 Information obtained from minute books, letters, members records, journals and periodicals. Royal Cromer Golf Club History Established 1888 Royal Cromer Golf Club owes its existence to the enthusiasm and love of the game of a Mr. Henry Broadhurst M.P., a Scot who lived at 19, Buckingham Street, The Strand, London. In the 1880's, whilst holidaying in Cromer, he recognised the potential of land to the seaward of the Lighthouse as a possible site for a Links Course. The popularity of North Norfolk at this time had been noted in the London City Press in a report dated 5th September 1886: "The public are greatly indebted to railway enterprise for the opening up of the East Coast. More bracing air and delightful sands are not to be found in any part of England. The only drawback is that the country is rather flat. This remark, however, does not apply to Cromer, which bids fair to become the most popular watering place, it being entirely free from objectionable features". The site of the proposed golf course was owned by the then Lord Suffield KCB, who kindly consented to the request of Broadhurst and some twenty other enthusiasts to rent the land. The Club was instituted in the Autumn of 1887 with Lord Suffield as President. Doubtless it was his friendship and influence with the Prince of Wales which precipitated the Prince's gracious patronage of the infant club on 25th December 1887. Thus Cromer had a Royal Golf Club even before its official opening the following January.

T)OPULARLY, the lighthouse seems to be looked A upon as a modern invention, and if we con- sider it in its present form, completeness, and efficiency, we shall be justified in limiting its history to the last centuries but as soon as men to down two ; began go to the sea in ships, they must also have begun to ex- perience the need of beacons to guide them into secure channels, and warn them from hidden dangers, and the pressure of this need would be stronger in the night even than in the day. So soon as a want is man's invention hastens to it and strongly felt, supply ; we may be sure, therefore, that in the very earliest ages of civilization lights of some kind or other were introduced for the benefit of the mariner. It may very well be that these, at first, would be nothing more than fires kindled on wave-washed promontories, 10 LIGHTHOUSES OF ANTIQUITY.

  • Log of Trip to the North Norfolk Coast
    Log of Trip to the North Norfolk Coast 6th August 2012 Des and I had been waiting for an opportunity to go to the north Norfolk coast and it was in August that our opportunity came. We brought Gwendoline up to Snape from the mooring at Aldeburgh to load up, ready for the trip. 7th August 2012 We left Snape when we came afloat at 06.00 and were at the Alde entrance 08.45 (a distance of 16M). We had a depth of 7’ over the bar at low water springs which was a 2’ improvement on last year, and the old entrance has now nearly closed up. It is strange how the shingle shifts so much. The wind was light SW but we soon managed to switch the engine off and were at Orford Ness at 09.45. At Thorpness we saw a black cloud and put reef in. The tide was gaining strength against us so we motor sailed to Southwold. We were in the Blyth at 14.00 (20M from Orford Haven) and given private jetty by the harbour master, who asked how much rubbish we would make and what we would put in the river! 8.8.12 We may have picked a weather window but the tides could have been better timed. Oh well you can’t have everything! So we had a walk to Walberswick while we waited for the flood to be well under way so we could take advantage of the whole of the favourable ebb stream running north, which would start at 16.00.
