These houses are probably the oldest houses in Bempton, located opposite the Parish Church in the centre of the village. In 1851 the road in front did not exist. Agricultural workers lived in these cottages some of which have original wooden beams. There were many dairy farms in Bempton. The RSPB Reserve at Bempton Cliffs is nearby. These are the highest Cliffs on the East Coast of England. Danes Dyke Earthwork reputed to be bronze age or earlier separates Bempton from Flamborough.
