brave men and woman

MUSIC the reason bottom of the pot was called music , is because when they are first put in the water they " sing " meaning the wooden bottoms expell massive amounts of air and the pots actually fizz like fizzy pop . Hence the name my pots a singing . They would stick a few fleets of brand new pots out heavily weighted and once they had sang finished fizzing you could use them normally take a good week to soak .

What a brilliant film, well done Tony & all

Excellent work as always from Mr Stibbons and his team. As comprehensive a documentary as could be wished for and great to see so many faces from the past. Brian Coe wasn't entirely an outsider as his mother was a Sherrunham gal and he spent most of his school holidays at his grandmother's house in Beeston Road so he had plenty of local friendships (including the Pegg brothers)to help him get permission to do his filming.

Really interesting video and what a bunch of amazing men

My 3 year old father was evacuated from Tilbury, Essex to Cromer on the day war was declared. Him and his baby sister with my nan stayed with a lovely old lady who they called Nanny Roe. My dads two older brothers was billleted with an elderly lady who treated them badly, so the family returned back to Tilbury before Christmas, 1939.

Cromer and the Norfolk Broads...So beautiful

Now a very pretty seaside town!

Interesting to see how much can be conveyed in animation with just a few simple techniques!

This is just beautiful.

What a beautiful video very informative really enjoyed it thank you

Thanks for this. My most recent British ancestors, the Stearman, arrived in Australia from the Cawston/Salle/Reepham district in the 1870s so your work gave me a good insight into my origins.

My family is from this beautiful plce1754 s Rodwell and Thorpe . I do thank you for this video

Was excited to see the All Saints Church and churchyard. My family originates from Norfolk. My 4x great grandmother is buried in that churchyard. Charlotte Fletcher Scott

England's most famous navel sea hero.

You're a really useful railway.

terrific docu

Thank you so much for this. I’ve been commencing family history research for some time. I put it that way because I know there are people far more experienced than I! My father’s surname (and still mine) was Fenn, and it seems from the records that the name really does simply indicate a person from the Fens! Obviously with spelling variations over the years! It’s hard to find anyone with a Fenn/Fen etc type surname on parish records who isn’t in Norfolk in the 1500s and quite a lot in the 1600s. Mine are traced back from East London, back to Hertfordshire, then I’m looking also at Bedfordshire; but I think that if I can keep going I’ll get back to the Fens. It might be difficult, though, as mine seem to have been in Herts/Beds or maybe Bucks perhaps as far back as I can possibly go. However, it seems likely they would have been Fens people before that. It’s just fascinating. I’ll be very interested to discover more about the life of Fenland people centuries ago. I’m pretty sure mine would have been among the poorest.

This was a great little documentary . Thank you for sharing it .

Very interesting. Thanks.
