Whitby Whitby No Data

Description


Given that it only features in three chapters of the book, Whitby has milked the Dracula and Bram Stoker connections for all they are worth. Located at the mouth of the river Esk the town was an important port, it's ship building yards built the ships that James Cook sailed to discover Australia and it's Abbey housed nine saints. Today the links to the very real discoverer of foreign lands are slightly overshadowed by the links to a fictitious blood sucker, but it's still a very pleasant and very English seaside town.
