Whitby West Cliff railway station (site), Yorkshire
Opened in 1883 on the North Eastern Railway's line from Redcar to Scarborough, the line continued south from here over the (still extant) Larpool viaduct, high above the Esk valley. There was also a connection from here down into the town station. Trains coming north from Scarborough would have to reverse here to do so. West Cliff station closed in 1961 and most is now gone, but the northbound platform shelter and buildings survive as part of a residential development, and seen here looking north west. The red car is where the tracks would have been.

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.
