The writer of this card started by asking, ”Don’t you think this a lovely view of Runswick Bay?” The card was posted on February 1st, 1905.

This stormy view of Runswick Bay is an ”Oilette” regd. postcard. Unfortunately I can’t make out the name of the publishers because it has been written over, but they were ”Publishers to their majesties The King and Queen.” It was posted on March 20th, 1905.

In this painting of the lifeboat at Runswick Bay by W. Gibson we can see the new lifeboat house that was built in 1910, on the beach.
On October 29th, 1910, a new lifeboat was sent to Runswick. She was a 35ft self-righter and was named the ’Hester Rothschild’ and served at Runswick until 1933, being involved in 31 services and saving 114 lives.

This more intimate view of Runswick and some of the villagers comes from a postcard posted on 5th August, 1919, to wish ”Many Happy Returns” to a Mrs. Morris at East Loftus.

In 1682 the whole village, except one house, dropped into the sea. I don’t know if this was it. Fortunately the villagers were roused and managed to evacuate their homes before they slid into the sea.
