Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The Lookout Viewed across muddy creek.
Many local families still make their living by fishing from Brancaster Staithe, which is famous for its first class shellfish. The harbour is also home to Brancaster Sailing Club, and sailing dinghies can be seen stored in and around the harbour. According to most books, Admiral Horatio Nelson learnt to sail at Brancaster but since in the mid to late 18th century there was no such thing as sailing for pleasure, it is more likely that he visited Brancaster Staithe from his home in nearby Burnham Thorpe, and persuaded local fishermen to take him out in their sailing boats. |
