Scarbrough Lighthouse

Today we are taking advantage of a break in the weather to explore Scarborough town. The harbour is busy but picturesque with an enclosing harbour wall and lighthouse.

The lighthouse was destroyed by German naval bombardment in 1914 in the same attack that hit Whitby (I mentioned this in my post on Sunday). The townsfolk paid for the rebuilding of the Lighthouse which remains in use to this day.
