Cromer RLNI Talk - 5th march 2020
The U3A Local History Group was very pleased to welcome a rather special guest speaker to their most recent monthly presentation - Richard Leeds, the recently retired 18-year long term Operations Manager of the Cromer RNLI Lifeboat Station and now bedding in to his new position in the Cromer Community – The Mayor of the Town.
Richard visited the group at their Sheringham Lighthouse “home” base to deliver an excellent session on the history of the Cromer Lifeboat from its inception in 1804 through to the present-day launching requirements of the incredibly talented Tamar Class Lifeboat which is based at the end of Cromer Pier. Richards presentation was laced with some exceptionally “ancient” but delightfully detailed photographs and slides which served to tell us all present just how incredibly tough life was for the old time crew members, mainly local fishermen, as they manned the rows of oars in the flimsily vulnerable craft used to save lives in the 19th and 20th centuries.
