More about this scene
In 1779, the peace of this tiny village was shattered by the noise of gunfire when the ships of the Royal Navy and the ships of the United States came together in the Battle of Flamborough Head. Nowadays, the loudest noise is the sound of the waves crashing against the cliffs in severe weather.
