Whitby’s West Cliff Station is now residential housing; situated at the end of Station Avenue, off Upgang Lane was still operational at the time of this image. A Class L1 No. 67754 in Whitby West Cliff station with local commuter train, some three years before closure in June 1961; locomotive 67754 was built in 1948 in Glasgow, finally being withdrawn from service in 1963.
An early view of Whitby from the harbour side station. The image is from ”Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd, Dundee.
Another view familiar today and little changed (other than the had rail around the harbour side; this image from – “Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd., Dundee.
This image from – “Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd., Dundee, is very reminiscent of other pictures by Frank Meadow Sutcliffe; particularly the inclusion of the eternal ‘urchins’ to create a point of interest in the image.
Another tremendous image from – “Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd., Dundee, it is amazing how good the town looked then (and still does), when viewed as a new visitor or an ‘old’ regular to the town!
This image of Larpool, from – “Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd., Dundee, shows the River Esk without the now familiar road bridge crossing; so avoiding the congestion that often occurs at the swing bridge.
Another by Frank Meadow Sutcliffe with this image from – ”Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd., Dundee. The Album showed many places around Whitby which could be visited as part of a series of daily tours when visitors wanted to explore the local area.
Frank Meadow Sutcliffe again; with this image from – “Photographic View Album of Whitby” – photographed and printed by Valentine & Sons Ltd., Dundee. Falling Foss is still as popular in modern times and remains a favourite haunt for families regardless of the season! |
