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?

 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.  The solitary fishing cobble seems dwarfed by the west pier lighthouse, in this view from the sea. Again a very calm sea, perhaps the photographer did not get seasick this time? Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  The almost regulation view of the Abbey over the pond and for a change no cows intrude into this aspect. Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  The view probably taken from the eastern side of the swingbridge presents a wonderful panorama of the harbourside and the towering buildings on East Terrace of the West Cliff. Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  A view over the outer harbour, including St Mary’s Church and the Abbey. The waters of the harbour almost mirrorlike. Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  The piers viewed from possibly the Battery area or from Kyber Pass. Image courtesy of Geoff Patton.  The great west doorway, of the Abbey. Destroyed by a shell during the bombardement from the German battleships in December 1914. Image courtesy of Geoff Patton. |
