Local area guide
Skip hire in Sheringham
Sheringham is a seaside town on the north Norfolk coast, sitting around 25 miles north of Norwich, with a population of around 7,500. It began as two settlements — Upper Sheringham, an inland farming village, and Lower Sheringham, a fishing community on the shore — and the town proper grew around the latter after the railway arrived in 1887 and turned it into a genteel Edwardian resort.
Fishing defined Lower Sheringham, and its crab and lobster boats, launched directly from the steep shingle beach, were once the backbone of the town. Sheringham fishermen were renowned for their lifeboat service, and the town preserves two historic lifeboats — the Henry Ramey Upcher, a private lifeboat funded by the Upcher family of Sheringham Hall in 1894, is displayed in its own boathouse, and the J.C. Madge in the Sheringham Museum known as the Mo. The Upcher family gave the town much of its character, and Sheringham Park, their estate landscaped by Humphry Repton in 1812 — which Repton considered his finest work — is now in the care of the National Trust, celebrated for its rhododendrons and views along the coast.
Sheringham's most striking wartime episode came in January 1915, when it became one of the first places in Britain to be bombed from the air — a Zeppelin dropped an incendiary on a house in Wyndham Street, marking the beginning of the air war against Britain. The town sits on a coast of crumbling glacial cliffs and is part of the Norfolk Coast National Landscape, with the Norfolk Coast Path running through.
The town is the eastern terminus of the North Norfolk Railway, known as the Poppy Line, a preserved steam railway running five miles along the coast through Weybourne to Holt. Sheringham station also serves the Bittern Line to Norwich, with the heritage line and the main line connected across the road by a level crossing reinstated in 2010. The Little Theatre and the Sheringham Carnival and Potty Festival are well-known local institutions, and Sheringham famously resisted a large supermarket for decades before one finally opened in 2015.
Sheringham sits on the A149 coast road, with Cromer three miles east and Holt five miles south-west. Housing ranges from flint fishermen's cottages in the old town to Edwardian villas and terraces built during the resort era, interwar bungalows, and post-war and modern development, with an older population profile and a significant holiday-let and second-home presence.
