Shoreham Harbour Lifeboat Station, by John Periam and Michelle Tugwell, published 2016 (RNLI) accessible at: West Sussex Libraries
Abstract:This new publication gives an exciting, and at times nostalgic history about the station's last 150 years.
From the early days of the horse drawn carriage lifeboats to the current state of the art Tamar lifeboat situated in its purpose built boathouse at Shoreham, you can read about the crews' exploits both at sea and behind the scenes.
It also covers royal visits, fund-raising, family histories, the history of the different lifeboats station and the many life saving services over the years.
Stunning images grace all the pages, many which have been enhanced from archive files, to current ones taken by Geoffrey Lee and other local photographers.
