Grimsby is mentioned in the song "Three Score and Ten," about a huge storm that wrecked the fishing fleets along the coast. I'm wondering if the song is about an historical storm, or if it is simply an amalgamation of all the losses of the fishing fleet to storms? The song mentions the month of October, herring boats and fishing smacks. It also mentions the towns of Yarmouth and Scarborough.
