Mundesley
Mundesley is a village on the north coast of the English county of Norfolk about eleven kilometers east of Cromer and about six kilometers west of Bacton . Mundesley has been a tourist destination since the 19th century.
economy
From the second half of the 19th century, the town, like the larger neighboring town of Cromer, experienced an economic boom due to the new railway line, which made it a holiday destination, especially for Londoners. The railway line through Mundesley no longer exists today, and parts of the track are polluting the cliffs and the beach due to erosion. Some large hotels and houses from the Victorian period still bear witness to the former heyday. Mundesley has wide sandy beaches with brightly colored beach houses and some campsites. Mundesley has been awarded the "Blue Flag" for the excellent quality of its seawater for years.
Attractions
On the coastal road from Mundesley towards Bacton is the restored Stow Mill, also known as the Paston Windmill. The four-story tower, built in 1827, served as a flour mill and now houses a small lake museum. Mundesley's All Saints Norman Church sits on the cliffs above the sea. For a hundred years, until 1905, it was in ruins, but was then restored in stages until 1914. The outer walls are clad in Norfolk traditional flint , characteristic of the older part of the village. The two large stained glass windows show a worship scene and Christ as the ruler of the world.
