Sheringham

Sheringham is a seaside town (population c.7,100) in Norfolk, England, located west of Cromer.

Sheringham today has a thriving town centre centred around a traditional high street which has a wide range of privately-owned shops. On Saturdays throughout the year there is a popular market located in the car park adjacent to the railway station which attracts large crowds to the town even out of the holiday season. The town also has a good selection of specialist shops such as second-hand books, antiques and bric-a-brac, fishing tackle and bait, a model shop plus arts and craft shops. The Sheringham Little Theatre has a wide range of productions on throughout the year including a well-established summer repertory season running from July to September, and a popular pantomime at Christmas; in the foyer is an coffee shop and there is nearly always a display of art, very often by local artists. There is a good selection of food outlets and some pubs, restaurants, and a youth hostel.
