More about this scene

Freebrough Hill, located on the edge of Moorsholm on the A171 Guisborough- to-Whitby moor road, is steeped in legend. Many myths have perpetuated that it is a burial mound , whilst geologists feel that it is a natural phenomena left by the Ice Age. Whichever is the correct explanation, its distinctive shape has been much loved by generations and remains an integral part of the Moorsholm area. Freebrough reputedly means 'meeting place for fairies' and has recently given its name to a new Community College.

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.
