More about this scene

The estate here was sold to a development company in 1895, and the intention was to build a large resort. The company was assailed by financial difficulties in 1913, and very few houses were ever completed. Billboards on the side of the Station Square shop advertise land for sale, and the board on the fence advertises the same for Robin Hoods Bay.

Someone told me that there was a bus back from town about 10:30 at night back in the 60s. Is this true?
