The Lost Trawlermen Memorial and The Fishing Community Memorial

Two memorials in the port recall and pay tribute to the trawlermen who lost their lives in the hunt for fish. The memorials celebrate Fleetwood’s proud heritage and tell the story for future generations to learn and understand about this heritage. The Lost Trawlermen Memorial sits beside the Asda Store on Dock Street which involves the funnel of the trawler Goth. It was trawled up and returned to Fleetwood nearly 50 years after the ship was lost. The Fishing Community Memorial sits on the promenade near the Lower Lighthouse.
