- Firefighting in Mundesley began in the early 1920s. With no permanent fire station the pump was housed anywhere available, usually local farm buildings. In the early 1930’s a building in Back Street was acquired to use as a fire station, & a steam driven Merryweather fire engine obtained from Cromer replaced the old pump

- video of Mundesley FB in 1967 - shows old and new stations, and states old station in use until 1967 when present fire station erected, so 1965 date may be wrong
