A postcard view of Scarborough dated 1931, however the colour tinting seems a bit awry!

 A “JAY EM JAY Series” postcard dating from 1907, the senders of the card were returning to Redcar after ‘A wet morning’. Still the views of Saltburn are really wonderful. Image courtesy of John G. Hannah.  A postcard produce by ‘H. Hamilton, Victoria Library, Saltburn-by-the-sea’ of the Italian Gardens with the Ha’penny Bridge in the background. Unused, but believed to date from the 1920’s.

I often wonder when this image was taken, knowing that my mother-in-law used to work on Bridling Station (in the railway buffet) pre WWII, but lived in Sandsend. She travelled daily; todays commuters have it easy. As the time spent travelling must have been considerable, owing to the pace of those local trains!

The horse and cart approaching the notoriously steep hill would have been disturbed in modern times by the low-flying aircraft or the speed of modern day traffic.  A postcard produce and sold by Rowntree’s of Scarborough (in its day “The place to shop” in Scarborough), with a view of Scarborough Castle. Image courtesy of Jean Carass.  A William Hayes postcard view of the Crown Hotel, Rosedale. Image courtesy of Jean Carass.  A further Judges’ postcard view from Robin Hood’s Bay towards the former Peak Alum Works at Ravenscar. Image courtesy of John G. Hannah.  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. |
