The Mo Museum, Sheringham
The amazing Mo Museum in Sheringham, built with Heritage Lottery funding in 2006, is a fascinating venue for all the family to learn about the local fishing and lifeboat history of the Shannocks - as the people of Sheringham were known. Light airy galleries and walkways lead the visitor through time from Sheringahm as a 19th century village to today's modern 21st century, popular tourist town. Within there are impressive views above lifeboats and up in the high glass lookout, panoramic vistas over the town and beach. This newest of seafront icons, 'Mo' takes its name from Morag, a young local girl who lived about 130 years ago.
