[en] Great Yarmouth

Great Yarmouth (/ˈjɑːrməθ/), often called Yarmouth, is a seaside town and unparished area in, and the main administrative centre of, the Borough of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, England; it straddles the River Yare and is located 20 miles (30 km) east of Norwich.[2] A population of 38,693 in the 2011 Census made it Norfolk's third most populous.[1] Its fishing industry, mainly for herring, shrank after the mid-20th century and has all but ended.[3] North Sea oil from the 1960s supplied an oil-rig industry that services offshore natural gas rigs; more recently, offshore wind power and other renewable energy industries have ensued. Yarmouth has been a resort since 1760 and a gateway from the Norfolk Broads to the North Sea. Holiday-making rose when a railway opened in 1844, bringing easier, cheaper access and some new settlement. Wellington Pier opened in 1854 and Britannia Pier in 1858. Through the 20th century, Yarmouth boomed as a resort, with a promenade, pubs, trams, fish-and-chip shops, theatres, the Pleasure Beach, the Sea Life Centre, the Hippodrome Circus, the Time and Tide Museum and a Victorian seaside Winter Garden in cast iron and glass.

Great Yarmouth, souvent appelée simplement Yarmouth, est une ville côtière du comté de Norfolk en Angleterre, laquelle se trouve à l'embouchure de la Rivière Yare, à environ 30 kilomètres à l'est de Norwich et à 18 kilomètres au nord de Lowestoft. C'est un port de plaisance depuis 1760 et un passage entre les voies navigables de Norfolk Broads et la mer. Pendant plusieurs siècles, Yarmouth dépendit de la pêche au hareng. Elle assure maintenant la maintenance de l'exploitation du pétrole en mer. Elle est aussi une station balnéaire, la plus importante dans le Norfolk.
