We are having the 8th annual Berney reunion at the Inn on Sunday 7th Sept from 12 noon onwards. There will be a carvery at the inn and there is now a teashop at the side of the inn. The train services are better this year. Everyone is welcome to come along for a yarn.
I have a few copies of Berney arms Remembered available at £8.50 for anyone interested.

Hi folks
The summer Saturday only loco hauled trains are running again and have beem sponsored by Norfolk County Council. They run non stop from Norwich at 10am and 12 noon via Berney Arms. They no longer drag an unfortunate electric loco across the marshes and tend to be top and tailed with a class 47.
cheers
Ian - NCC Railways Officer.

Unfortunately still no sign of the sails of Berney turning. In consolation though it was very nice to see Mutton's mill in action today!

Chris Shepherd was the landlord of The Berney pub for some years and sadly passed away in late 2006.There is now a seat in his memory constructed in stainless steel and positioned on the bank of the River Yare outside the Berney Pub.

It was so nice to read the article and see the pictures of Beach station in Yarmouth. As a boy I used to go there on Saturdays with my barrow to take holiday makers to their hotels or caravan sites.

Nice to see Lockgate Mill again. Used to visit Great aunt Polly & uncle Gordon Addison when I was young. Remember Pollys' cream cheese & homemade butter

Great little website, I love Berney Arms station, a little British nuttiness, wonderful. Strangely remote and yet appealing, I want to go there now.

The ITV Drama Series 'Kingdom' starring Stephen Fry, featured Berney Arms mill and area in a flyover shot in its opening credits this last Sunday evening. Not sure it its the same images every week. Mill looks good!

Part of the Quay Heading at The Berney Arms was up for sale in September 2007.
Does anyone know if the land was sold.

I had a look at your very fine website to find out if the Berney Arms sold real ale and I was delighted to see that it did. What a waste of a lovely pub if it didn't! I look forward to a 3 hour lunchtime visit between trains from and back to Great Yarmouth in the Summer of 2008.

HELLO
Was wondering if anyone could help me. Been looking at the Hewitt family tree. Does anyone know the parents of Edward Hewitt 1781? and the family tree before then. Where did the Hewitts come from before they were in the Reedham area? Or have they always been there? Just really interested.
Love this site loads.

Used to transport Robinson's passengers from Liverpool in the 1970s and have also had a few holidays in Great Yarmouth. Will return one day to have a look at the places I have stayed at.

Part of the quay heading at The Berney is for sale by auction on 19.9.07. There is a for sale board displayed on the quay heading approx 100 yards the Berney Inn side of the Berney Mill. The auction is for approx 80 feet of Quay heading and for a half acre of land. The site is possibly where one of the cottages once stood.

This site is where the bungalow and cottages once stood. The histories of these buildings is in my book Berney Arms Remembered.
