Brixham harbour 1924 and 2008

The fishing technique of trawling was invented in Brixham. The practice and boat design was quickly exported along the British coastline and then across the world.

Today you can visit 'Vigilance', a trawler from the 1920s restored to seaworthy condition, based in Brixham harbor.
