This is thought to be the building of the old Parish
Hall in Thorpe Lane viewed from the entrance looking
towards the stage. The man at the front far right may be

COASTGUARD COTTAGES
 |
 |
|
| Coastguard cottages up high with a sea view...... | .......and a path down to the village |
 |
 |
|
| A view from the coastguard cottages. On the right are
the houses at the top of Robin Hood's Bay; then above
that level are some of the houses of Fylingthorp . In the distance is a higher level taking one to Whitby. This highest level forms a half saucer shape around Fylingdales. |
Turning further inland one sees new St Stephen's
Church in the foreground. In the far distance on the left
hand edge there is a faint grey building which is old St
Stephen's Church. This illustrates the faraway position of the old church. |

so many of us have climbed at one time or another. |
