Red House Inn, Cantley
Heresay says my boat was built in the 1880s for the then-owner of the Red House at Cantley, and was called "Lama" or possibly "Llama". Does anyone have any information on owners/landlords, or boating pictures of that period?
Thanks

A R Taylor
I left school at 15 in 1953, and like many others of my age went to work at A R Taylors timber merchants. I first worked at the Tunstead road site. It was hard work and unlike today there was no such thing as a contract of employment so you did whatever anyone who was older than you told you to do.

Extracts From Brundall & Norfolk books
Boatsheds on the right of the picture are typical of many, with mooring for several boats. A refuelling pump stands on the edge of the water next to a general stores. A wooden bungalow with its own mooring is similar to many bordering the rivers of the northern Broads.

A backwater where several interesting craft are moored. On the left is a wartime landing craft, which has been converted into a houseboat. Next to it, the yacht has a deep hull, indicating that it is a sea-going boat not primarily intended for use on the broads. The small boats on the right are old punts, the kind used by wild fowlers.

On the road leading to the priory gateway, this fine 14th-century, jettied, timber-frame building may have been built for visitors to the abbey. The period petrol pumps have now gone.

The spacious market-place was established by 1130, but the present timber-framed ‘cross’ building dates from 1617. It replaced the original after yet another Norfolk fire gutted the town centre.

This was the former water mill. Smartened up, with its brickwork painted, the mill is now a house. It was powered by the head waters of the River Ant, canalised in 1826 as the North Walsham and Dilham Canal.
