  • 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.

  • A Walk of Two Midwives: a Circular Walk in North Norfolk
    A Walk of Two Midwives: a circular walk in North Norfolk Introduction This walk was inspired by a paper written by Julia Allison, a midwife historian and former General Secretary of The Royal College of Midwives, and I owe many thanks to her for additional information and her enthusiasm for the retrieval and safeguarding of the history of midwifery in the UK. [Please see Midwives of Sixteenth-Century Rural East Anglia, Rural History (2016) 27 (1), 1-19. DOI: 10.1017/S0956793315000138.] The walk begins and ends at the village of Binham, a few miles inland from the north Norfolk coast, and offers a glimpse into the world of Mistress Fiske, a midwife living at Binham, and Margaret Burwood, a midwife living in Wells, in the 16th century. The information below provides some context for the places on the route. Mistress Fiske Mistress Fiske (we do not know her first name) lived in a fair-sized house in Binham. Her husband was a farmer and saffron-grower. Saffron was an important commodity (used as a dye) and was grown widely across East Anglia. Their house had at least two floors and contained a hall, a saffron kiln, a parlour and a number of bedchambers. Julia Allison, citing the papers of Nathaniel Bacon (of whom more later), tells us that in 1599 Mistress Fiske attended, along with her servant, Mistress Calthorpe in Cockthorpe, the village immediately north of Binham. Mistress Calthorpe was the wife of Captain Calthorpe of the local militia. The walk will follow their likely route. Mistress Fiske’s brother-in-law was a ship builder and owner in nearby Wells-Next-The –Sea, where another midwife Margaret Burwood lived during the 16th century.
