The 199 steps shown in a Valentine’s Series postcard view now known to date from 1892s. Obviously a washing day for at least one house!

A postcard view dating from 1960 and showing the road with remarkably little traffic. Obviously ideal for walking the pram!

A Judges’ postcard view of Robin Hood’s Bay, we like the cart parked in what is now a parking area behind the present day ‘Candy’s Café & Tearoom’. The view is still the same, magnificent! Image courtesy of John G. Hannah.  A Judges’ postcard view of the Laurel Inn; is the fisherman returning from the Inn or happily on his way to work his boat? Image courtesy of John G. Hannah.  This Tom Watson postcard dating from 1927, the sender tells of travelling round the moors and was considering a cycle ride from Sandsend to Goathland, an energetic sort! Unfortunately as Peter Appleton points out; the card’s title is incorrect. this view is more south westerly than west. Image courtesy of John G. Hannah, thanks to Peter Appleton for the update. |
