This J. T Ross postcard view of Cappleman’s Yard although not postmarked dates probably from the late 1890’s. Situated at 43/44 Church Street, Cappleman’s Yard is first listed in 1828 and later in 1899, changed its’ name to Stanley Place c.1909. A typical example of a Whitby yard with steps and landings crossing the narrow yards or alleys which adjoined Church Street in particular.

Does anyone have a picture of Furnace Buildings, Skinningrove? My great grandfather moved there from Norfolk in the late 19 th century.
I suggest you search for Furnace Cottages; they were located in Carlin How. You should then have success. Good luck. John
