Nelson's Monument in Great Yarmouth was built in 1819 - 24 years before Nelson's Column in London.
The areas to be addressed by 1st East cover around 135 hectares - mainly industrial land which can be developed and 26 km of waterfront prime for regeneration. Not everything in the URC areas needs redeveloping, but a lot does, and the aim is to benefit everyone living and working in Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth.
The area action plans have been approved in draft by Waveney District Council and Great Yarmouth Borough Council. The Area Action Plan comprises all of the maps and the text documents. All should be read together.
