Staithes, North-East England - October 2005 (32 images)

Midway between Redcar and Whitby, this beautiful fishing village lies at the foot of a steep road which wends its way to a harbour. There is a cottage nearby where Captain James Cook spent some of his young life before becoming one of the worlds greatest explorers. From the harbour, steep narrow roads and passages with such names as Dog Loup and Gun Gutter, climb up to the cliff tops where lovely vistas of the village can be viewed.
