Mr. and Mrs. Roberts took photographs of the shop over the years. I think this one was taken in the early sixties. Jack Roberts is sitting on the step and John is standing in the doorway.
Thanks to John for the photo.

An interesting view of Cattersty Beach and the Jetty beyond, viewed from the cliffs, west of Skinningrove works.
A lovely picture showing how the jetty separates the beaches at Skinningrove, with Huntcliffe in the background. The road leads to Hummersea, North Terrace and Boulby eventually after many twists and turns. At one time this was the only way into Skinningrove from Loftus
A change to have a coloured view of the works, the sea and the surrounding countryside, taken from the east of Skinningrove. |
