Lowestoft Lifeboat Station

Lowestoft Lifeboat Station is a Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) operated lifeboat station in the town of Lowestoft in the English county of Suffolk. The station is located at the mouth of Lowestoft's outer harbour on the South pier. It is one of the oldest lifeboat stations in the British Isles, having been established in 1801.〔(Lowestoft Lifeboat Station ), Royal National Lifeboat Institution. Retrieved 2014-03-15.〕
==History==
The station was established in 1801, when a lifeboat built by Henry Greathead began operating from the town. In 1807 the station became the first to operate a sailing lifeboat, the ''Frances Anne'', which operated until 1850 and saved over 300 lives.〔 The station came under the control of the RNLI in 1855.〔 A second station operated in the town between 1870 and 1912, whilst the South Broads Lifeboat Station, an inshore station, operated at Oulton Broad between 2001 and 2011.〔(RNLI closes South Broads lifeboat station at Oulton Broad ), BBC news website, 2011-11-15. Retrieved 2014-03-15.〕
Crews from Lowestoft have received 45 awards for gallantry, including 39 medals. The RNLI Gold Medal has been awarded twice. The first award was to Lieutenant R B Matthews RN in October 1827. Coxswain John Swan was the second recipient, for his actions during the rescue of the crew of the merchant ship , wrecked on North Scroby Sands in October 1922.〔 The lifeboat ''Michael Stephens'' took part in the Dunkirk evacuation in 1940.〔
