A very rustic scene of Runswick Bay. At the date of this postcard the cottages would belong to fishermen. The precarious site of which on the steep hill side, prone to landslips, led to the loss of many cottages over the years. James asks: “Does anyone know the date of this Lansdowne Cottage view? The long chimney stack used to rest against the gable end of the house to the left.” Can any viewers assist?
