Great Yarmouth, Market town in Norfolk, England

Great Yarmouth extends along the North Sea coast with a harbor at the mouth of Breydon Water, where three rivers meet the sea.

The town received its royal charter from King John in 1208, and medieval walls were constructed to fortify the settlement by the late 13th century.

The Hippodrome Circus, built in 1903, remains one of three complete circus buildings from the Victorian era still operating in England.

The town center maintains a traditional market operating six days per week, offering local produce, crafts, and fresh seafood from Norfolk waters.

The Scroby Sands offshore wind farm, visible from the shore, generates renewable energy while supporting the area's transition from fishing to energy production.
