More about this scene
Although it is close to the sugar-processing factory, this village on the River Yare is an ideal spot for holidaymakers. The mooring is free, the meals at the hotel are good, and there is a ferry and a railway by which you can travel to Norwich, Lowestoft and Yarmouth quicker than by boat; no wonder Cantley is popular with visitors and locals alike.

My grandmother was the Landlady at the Red House during the 60's and the 70's together with my great aunt and uncle!!!! Alot of my childhood memories center around Christmas's and summer holidays spent at my nan's pub!!!!
I was master of small coaster loading molasses for London. The landlord was a Canadian army veteran who had a badly injured shoulder. He was sniped at by a German 88, quite a big gun, at Bergen op Zoom. Rumour also had it that the previous landlord's daughter was a member of the famous all female Ivy Benson's band. Does this jog any memories?
What a beautiful memories... what beautiful times. Times still in my brain. If anybody knows anything about Jimmy, Scott, Grand mum, or that fantastic girl who loves Viviane Westwood, please contact me on oscarbrull@gmail.com. Please.
