Whitby, East Yorkshire - October 2005 ( 59 images )

Whitby is situated on the north east coast of England. This is a lovely resort with buildings constructed on a north and south hillside with the River Esk running between them and out into the North Sea. Of particular note is that Captain James Cook began his sailing life here and on the south side of the river, high on the steep cliffs, stands the remains of Whitby Abbey founded in  657AD. The pictures in this section were taken in October 2005.
