 Pond Farm Hinderwell. The family home of theTyerman’s as well as general farming they also bred Cleveland Bay Horses. Members of the Tyerman family also lived in Holme Farm, Hinderwell High Street. The family had strong connections to the Brown Cow on the High Street.  Home of the Tyerman family with strong links to Pond Farm and the Brown Cow. Both the farm and the inn are almost opposite on the High Street in Hinderwell. Holme farm was later the home of the Sanderson family. Image courtesy of Elaine Meadows (nee Tyerman).  Family group wedding with the marriage of Emily Jefferson to Stanley Hill; 16th June 1913. Jefferson was the female side of the Tyerman family line. Image and names courtesy of Elaine Meadows (daughter of Joseph Henry Tyerman – Junior).  Known now as The Mariners Cottage; the Shoulder of Mutton was listed in Bulmer’s Directory of 1893 with George Lloyd as the licensee. Reputedly one of the oldest houses in Staithes and the image shows the ladies gathered in their ’Steers’ bonnets (I wonder whose reputation was being discussed?) outside the inn and adjacent shop. Terry Kent has advised: “My great great grandfather was killed in May 1870 when a he was a crewman on the “Earl of Elgin” which was in collision with the “Jesmond” off Staithes. The inquest was held in this Inn.” Image courtesy of Joyce Dobson and Keith Bowers, thanks to Terry Kent for the update.  A Frith postcard view dating from pre 1926 (postmarked 25th May 1926) of Sandsend. It clearly shows the railway only divided from the main road by a wooden board wall. In the foreground is the house ’Sandhills’ which was for some time recently a restaurant but is now returned to a private residence. Image courtesy of John G. Hannah.
Staithes High Street in the early 20th century. a lovely photograph showing the narrow street to perfection and the ladies in their Staithes (or Steers as locals know it) bonnets, even if you go to Staithes now you never seem to see the bonnets so traditional and popular with the fisher women of Staithes.  This area adjacent to the fish quay, shows a Pier Road uncluttered wiuth amusements, fish and chip shops or hotdog stalls. How much quieter it must have been for the returning fishermen? Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  Not many people on the beach in this view, perhaps the throng on the paths are returning from the beach or an event at the Spa? Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  The obligatory view of the 199 Steps to the church and Abbey. Is the lady going to church with hymn book in hand or snatching a quiet read whilst the children rest before ascending? Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  Viewed possibly from the top of the 199 steps, Kyber Pass with East Terrace above seems devoid of traffic. A quiet day in Whitby? Image courtesy of Geoff Patton. |
