The town has given its name to the Cromerian Stage or Cromerian Complex, also called the Cromerian, a stage in the Pleistocene glacial history of north-western Europe.
Cromer is not mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. The place-name ‘Cromer’ is first found in a will of 1262[7] and could mean ‘Crows’ mere or lake’.[8] There are other contenders for the derivation, a north-country word ‘cromer’ meaning ‘a gap in the cliffs’ or less likely a direct transfer from a Danish placename.

It was quite busy in the town, I seem to have captured a brief moment in time when the crowds had briefly thinned out.
The colour of the sea looks so refreshing.
Seas around Essex, Kent and Sussex look rather muddy.
The colour of the sea is spectacular.
The sea in some parts of Yorkshire is black due to the ironstone in the area.
