It's world-famous for its miles of sandy beaches and historic fishing villages. Now, the picturesque Norfolk coast on England's eastern shore is attracting global attention following the discovery of a century-old shipwreck.
Three weeks ago, the remains of the SS Commodore were spotted near the town of Sheringham by local snorkeler and filmmaker Chris Taylor. He told CBS News' Imtiaz Tyab good weather and a little luck helped him make the discovery.
"I think I just got lucky. It was just a lot of, you know, the weather, the clearness of the water, the sand not being there and me just happening to swim ashore at the right place. It just all came at once. I should have bought a lottery ticket," said Taylor.
