More about this scene

Lowestoft is the most easterly point of Britain, with many dangerous sandbanks offshore. Trinity House built two lighthouses, one on the clifftop, one on the shingle below. The present High Light, pictured here, dates back to 1676, and was originally coal-fired. In front of it is a tank from the Great War.

I really love this lovely old photo. It shows a WW1 British tank which was used in the first world war in France, it was given to the town after the war had ended as a gift. It was stored there for many years until it was scrapped, it fell into poor condtion, as school children used to play on it.
