Filey,
a traditional, quite, seaside holiday resort, with 5 miles
of sand, developed in the 19th century, from a fishing hamlet,
and the crescents and gardens are still here today having
changed little over the years since the writer Charlotte Bronte
spent her holidays here. Take a stroll in Glen Gardens.
Fishermen
still go out from the town from Coble Landing, the centre
of fishing in Filey.
The parish
church, St Oswald, is perched on the cliffs, and dates from
the 12th century, and is dedicated to the patron saint of
fishermen, with a Fishermen’s Window.
Famous
once for its large Butlins holiday camp, now closed, it is
a popular resort in the summer.
Out and
about bird life can be seen at the 'Brigg', a rocky outcrop
which was once a Roman Signal Station. Bempton Cliffs, just
down the A165
