Town Equipped with New CCTV Cameras for Enhanced Security
Great Yarmouth Borough Council has added CCTV coverage at six coastal sites. The move follows concerns raised by residents about safety and anti-social behaviour.
Where cameras were placed
New units now monitor churchyards, parks, and a bowls club along the Norfolk coast. The council identified locations with repeated reports of disturbance.
- Caister Cemetery
- Yarmouth Old Cemetery
- Gorleston Old Cemetery
- Priory Gardens
- Beaconsfield Recreation Ground
- Gorleston Bowls Club
Council response and objectives
The council said the installations respond directly to local concerns. Officials stated the aim is to improve safety and deter anti-social activity.
The borough is equipped with new CCTV cameras to provide enhanced security in public spaces. This forms part of ongoing community protection work.
Expected benefits and next steps
Officials expect the cameras to discourage vandalism and reduce incidents in monitored areas. They will also support any future investigations.
The council will continue to review footage and community feedback. Further adjustments to coverage may follow based on results and resident reports.
