Description
Clacton-on-sea 1890s Yacht Launch
Long before cheap package holidays abroad, back in the late Victorian era, the crowds from London and Essex would flock to the relatively new town of Clacton-on-Sea to take in the bracing sea air. The town boasted a huge number of hotels, sandy beaches and a long pier from which steamers could be taken along the coast and the beach was used for launching fishing boats and even taking the occasional passenger.
