Background Information
This film was shot by Birt Acres in the summer of 1896. It shows fishing smacks leaving Yarmouth Harbour. Ironically, this most modern media, with a long history ahead of it, was recording something that was soon to be a thing of the past. The fishing smacks disappeared from Yarmouth after the turn of the 20th century as the town concentrated on the herring fisheries. Sail smacks gave way to steam drifters. The original film was in a collection given to the National Film and Television Archive in 1995 by Mr. Ray Henville. The film was restored and copied by the National Film and Television Archive. Birt Acres took a second film whilst in Yarmouth. This showed the sands with a pleasure boat on the beach loading or unloading passengers. This film has not been rediscovered but was shown at the Agricultural Hall, Norwich on 11th January, 1897 as part of a cinematograph show in Gilbert's Modern Circus.
