EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of Lowestoft's Herring Drifters off the Fishing Grounds in the 1920s. The image transports us back in time to an era when traditional fishing craft dominated the North Sea. The drifters, with their distinctive sails and simple design, are a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the local fishing community. The boats, bobbing gently on the waves, are a sight to behold against the vast expanse of the sea. The steamers in the background, with their billowing smoke stacks, add a sense of industry and progress. The drifters, on the other hand, represent the timeless and sustainable methods of the past. The fishing grounds off the coast of Lowestoft have been a source of livelihood for generations of fishermen. The herring, a staple of the local diet, were a valuable catch, and the drifters were the perfect vessels for this type of fishing. The boats would be towed out to the fishing grounds, where the crew would set out their nets and wait for the herring to swim into them. This photograph is a reminder of the rich maritime history of Lowestoft and the importance of the fishing industry to the community. The drifters may no longer be a common sight on the North Sea, but their legacy lives on in the stories and memories of those who once sailed on them. This image is a precious record of a bygone era, and a reminder of the beauty and simplicity of traditional fishing methods.
