And as the nights begin to draw in, what better way to remember sunnier times, than looking back at pictures celebrating Cromer's history as a place for both holidaymakers and locals?

Pictured in 1972 are people heading off from Cromer on a bus trip to Naples. While in this photo from 1956, Whit Monday daytrippers arrive in the seaside town to enjoy a bank holiday on the beach.

Cromer also has many popular events - enjoyed by visitors and townspeople alike - including this picture from 1982 of the packed seafront at Cromer Carnival as revellers enjoy the fancy dress parade.

The annual waiters' race is also a highlight of the Carnival, shown here in this photo from 1963.
