Kearsley's Traveller's Entertaining Guide through Great Britain(1803)
Cromer. A sea-port town, which was once larger that it is now. It had two churches, one of which, with many of the houses, was swallowed up by an inundation of the sea. It is chiefly inhabited and frequented by fishermen, especially for lobsters, which are caught here and carried to Norwich and London. It is a rocky coast. Near it is Felbridge, a house of the right honourable William Wyndham, esq. Here are also houses of J. Gurney, esq. and H Partridge, esq. And some miles on the L. Beeston, Cremer Cremer, esq. and C. Flower, esq.
