Top View Stores
I lived at the house on the left - The Chalet. I lived here from 1938 -1959. The eastern end of the house was the village shop and was known as Top View Stores. Records of the house were traced back as early as 1784. When the roof was recently refurbished, the original timbers and roof joists were un-trimmed and had the branch stumps attached. The footings for the walls also consisted of large boulders dating back to its construction and were obtained from the beach nearby.
In 1947 the snow was higher than the walls and fences at the front of the house. During WW2 the west end of the house was used by troops based nearby for recreation and ...read more here

Extracts From Ulrome & North Humberside books
A large platform with huge oak supporting piles was discovered here in 1880. It is believed to have been a dwelling that once stood upon a lake, perhaps in the Bronze Age. The end house is in use as a shop, which would have served the caravan park on the land next to it.
An extract from from"Yorkshire Coastal Memories Photographic Memories".
The church of St Cuthbert is of Early English origins, but
was restored in 1877 and partially rebuilt in brick. There
was once a south aisle, but this was removed, as was the
chancel arch. A small turret clock, with two dials, was erected
in the tower in commemoration of Queen Victoria’s jubilee.
An extract from from"Humberside Pocket Album".
The Hall was built in the early 18th century, when the parkland was
laid out; it includes the oldest monkey-puzzle trees in the world. The
house and grounds were bought by Bridlington Council in 1934 and
opened to the public by Amy Johnson. After her death on one of her
long-distance flights, her father gave her memorabilia to the Hall, and
the Amy Johnson room was opened in 1956.
An extract from from"Humberside Pocket Album".
Protected on the north-east by the
great headland of Flamborough,
there are long stretches of fine
sand both north and south of
the harbour. Away from the cold
winds, the Victorian gentry were
able to pursue their favourite
pastime - a gentle stroll.

This used to be the most genteel of the Yorkshire seaside
resorts, a view that is exemplified by the promenading of the
nouveau riche in this 1920s photograph.
