Tablet on house wall in Whitby
This tablet is incorporated in the brickwork of a modern terraced house in Whitby and marks the spot where a shell from a German battlecruiser landed during the raid of December 16th 1914. A German naval force had arrived off the east coast and whilst the northern group attacked Hartlepool, which had British naval facilities, two battlecruisers, the Derfflinger and the Van der Tann attacked both Whitby and Scarborough, two undefended towns. The Whitby raid was at around 9am and lasted for just 10 minutes, causing the death of 3 people. The raids caused public outrage in Britain, due largely to the fact that the German ships had attacked undefended towns of no military significance.
