History
Mundesley has an entry in the Domesday Book of 1086, with the town's name recorded as Muleslai. The main landholder was William de Warenne, and the survey also lists a church.
The Mundesley Memorial Bomb is dedicated to Army teams who removed mines after the Second World War. There is a War memorial inside the Church and on the seafront at the Coastwatch station and museum. Near to the church is a World War II gun emplacement, which now stands near the edge of the cliff, due to coastal erosion.

More about Mundesley
Arts and culture
Mundesley is a popular seaside holiday destination due to its sandy beaches and has a number of holiday chalet and caravan parks and hotels. Just to the south of Mundesley on the road to Paston is a popular windmill, Stow Mill. The village was a popular seaside resort in Victorian times, benefiting from its own railway station which closed in 1964.
The village has an historic golf course in the Mun Valley, established in 1901 and designed with the help of six-times Open Champion Harry Vardon. Vardon convalesced at the nearby sanitorium while recovering from tuberculosis and his association with the course spanned many years. It is said that he scored his only hole-in-one on what is now the sixth. The course was altered when land was required for wartime farming and was redesigned when the conflicts ended.
