The old town of Staithes, North Yorkshire
As one can see in the picture above the "old" part of Staithes is located in
a very limited area at the base of the cliff. There is not an inch of flat
ground available for any form of expansion. Generally speaking most of the older
buildings are in this area and as one moves back up the
High Street to the top of the hill the
buildings get more modern.
At the top of the hill at the junction of the High Street and the A174 one
will find the more modern extension to the town of Staithes including a Co-op
Supermarket. The residents up here have the advantage that their mobile phones
actually work too.
