Esplanade and Crown Hotel

The Crown Hotel forms the centrepiece of this curving terrace built in the 1840s when Scarborough was expanding as it developed as a seaside resort. The coming of the railway in 1845 encouraged massive expansion of the first seaside resort. Open public space fills the area between the road and cliff top
