This open section of ground beside the Birds Eye factory is called The Denes. Location of fish-net drying racks on Lowestoft waterfront known as 'The Denes'.
Historically the area was the location of a fishing community called the 'Beach Village' from which the local fishermen used longshore boats (along the shore) and, later, sailing smacks and then steam drifters. The only remnants of the old fishing village are the drying racks that run along Whapload Road. These are possibly the oldest remaining structures in Lowestoft. The original Beach Village dates back to the 1760's.

The open area alongside the Birds Eye factory is called The Denes. Historically the area was the location of a fishing community called the 'Beach Village' from which the local fishermen used longshore boats (along the shore) and, later, sailing smacks and then steam drifters. By the early 20th century the longshore boats had become trawlers and the fishing industry the mainstay of the local economy. The only structures left from the 1760 village are the drying racks that run alongside the now Whapload Road.

A pretty industrial-looking area these days.
