More about this scene

Ruswarp, standing at the tidal limit of the River Esk, was at one time as important a port as neighbouring Whitby, and a mill was mentioned here in the Domesday Book. This photograph was taken looking up the steep High Street which leads up from the river, with the footpath to nearby Whitby leading off to the right.
