Coxswain Henry Blogg (1876-1954) was the RNLI's most decorated lifeboatman. During his 53 years of service Blogg was awarded three Gold and four Silver RNLI medals for gallantry, as well as the George Cross and British Empire Medal. With the assistance of his dedicated crew, he launched some 387 times and helped to save 873 lives around the Cromer coast.
The museum illustrates the history of Cromer lifeboats and Blogg's most famous rescues. The Watson class lifeboat HF Bailey, that served heroically under Blogg in World War Two, is the centrepiece of the museum and features alongside historic photographs, paintings and models. Family friendly interactive displays bring the history of Cromer heroes past and present to life.
You can view the currently operating all weather lifeboat at the station at the end of the pier.
