The Raid on Yarmouth, on 3 November 1914, was an attack by the Imperial German Navy on the British North Sea port and town of Great Yarmouth.German shells only landed on the beach causing little damage to the town, after German ships laying mines offshore were interrupted by British destroyers.
The site was sold to Colman's for food manufacturing in 1890 and then to Great Yarmouth Borough Council in 1924; the buildings suffered some damage during the Second World War. [1] At some point, the barracks were demolished, and an housing estate called Barrack Estate was built on the site. [4]
