Great Yarmouth’s pubs were once a hive of activity - but now it seems punters looking for refreshment and chat are more likely to be greeted by boarded-up windows and peeling paint.
A famous quote goes, If you can remember the 1960s, you weren’t really there.
The same could maybe be said for some pubs.
But here, with the help of Google streetview, we’ve taken a look at some of Great Yarmouth’s old watering holes - and what they’ve now become.
