Magnet fishing on the Norfolk Broads

Post by Miles »



Magnet fishing in a place called Gaye's Staithe, exploring its historical significance. The term "staithe" is of Anglo-Saxon origin and means a landing place. In the past, Gaye's Staithe would have been a bustling commercial hub with cargo barges, specifically Norfolk Wherries, navigating through. These wherries were designed for the Norfolk Broads.

The name Gaye's Staithe might be connected to John Gay, a wherryman who lived in a nearby house.
