Summary edit

Description
English: Point House During the 18th and 19th centuries Coltishall, situated on the River Bure, was a prosperous village where wherry builders and maltsters successfully plied their trades. The railway, which arrived in 1879, brought more visitors to the Broads and the fashionable brick houses that line High Street, Church Street and Wroxham Road date from this time. The view is northwest towards the High Street/Church Street junction and to Point House, a fine 18th century building presently accommodating shops and offices, beyond. When the local industries closed in the early 1900s - the last wherry was built in 1920 and the last malt house closed in 1927 - many of the shops closed as well.
