woodwose Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Hi Carol There is this site http://www.remembernorfolk.org/ which has got collections of archive photos on it. It took over from ARCH which was a Council funded project until the money ran out. It's something we avoided getting involved with at the Ludham Archive and we decided to do our own website. Commanet is no more so websites with that name will no longer work. I think Comma went bust. Nigel Ludham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY littleboat Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Found this newly posted video - thought it was really interesting and the original 8mm film really well shot. I remember growing up in the 70s, things certainly seemed alot more carefree in those days. Alot of the footage reminded me of my own childhood and I suppose little things that you remember to some degree make you feel sad that you can't turn the clock back, even for one day.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Having just watched that Utube clip it reminds me of just how busy it was in the 60s/70s! Yarmouth was at times rafting up 3 deep which was interesting if you wanted to get away before the boat on your outside did'nt!! I remember the toilets emptying direct into the rivers too. My uncle once commented looking over the side at Yarmouth "Ok Brown, you're through"... It had to be explained to me what he meant! It also reminded me of how many casual moorings there were which have long since gone. Seeing the boat going through Potter bridge brought back memories of taking 6 berth cruises myself with ease. Carol, just watched your Broadland Memories 1930's DVD. Loved it! And No, I was'nt about then before someone comments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodwose Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Unfortunately, remembernorfolk.org which I mentioned above is no longer working. It did have a number of photograph collections from various archive groups but the funding ran out. It had been kept running (but without updates) for some time now, and now it is gone. Let's hope that some of the archive groups create their own websites. Fortunately, the Ludham Archive stayed out of it. We are still up and running. www.ludhamarchive.org.uk Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodwose Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Here are a couple of extra links: The Catfield village site. It has a small history section. The Catfield Archive Group is also starting up and there are details on the site. http://www.catfield.org.uk/index.htm Flegg Island. The Flegg area was once an island, hence the name. This site is really for those tracing their family trees in the Flegg area. The site went down after the owner died but it has been recreated and is now managed by the Ludham Archive Group http://www.fleggisland.co.uk/ Lots more has been added to the Ludham Archive Website if you are interested in this area. http://www.ludhamarchive.org.uk/ Nigel Ludham 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawsOrca Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 There's a link on Carol's website to donate.

BroadAmbition Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 It is possible to set up a paypal monthly donation via Carols website. I managed it, more by luck than good judgement I might add Griff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Great piece of film. Yet more evidence that PHB used to be navigated with ease back in those days when the GYA Port Commissioners regularly dredged the lower Bure Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMBooth Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Came across a 1961 Blakes catalogue, I had kept from back then because of this picture taken at the Pleasure Boat at Hickling, my family were on Calm Waters from Fowlers of Oulton Broad, and friends on the 'Windboat' in the forground, so assume taken in 1960. It now seems amazing that most boats could get through the bridge back then but not now, Obviously the boats are bigger, and many of them are not 'Bridge shaped' and not even ;Boat shaped' as a Potter Heigham bridge pilot once told me! Recently we hired an Electric day boat from Phoenix to explore the upper Thurne, which was much more peaceful than the usual noisy Diesel offerings. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
