The Metropole Hotel
A Memory of Cromer.
The hotel which features in this photo is the Metropole Hotel which was situated in Tucker Street. It had access at the rear leading down to the Promenade. Following WW2 it fell into disrepair and was demolished being replaced with a block of flats. The only physical survival is a metal gate at the east end of the site, opposite the small Church gateway. This gate bears the letters HM (for Hotel Metropole).

Next door to the Metropole was the East Cliff Hotel which sort of hung on the Cliff edge just by the Red Lion Hotel. This was converted into flats immediately after de-requisition.
