Scarborough Past

Everyone loves looking at old photos of places where they grew up or favourite holiday destinations. There’s a great Facebook community called the Old Scarborough Photo Archive which I’m sure you’ll love. Give them a visit, like the page, and even tell them who sent you if you still have the time. For now, here’s a few of our favourites, borrowed, but credited.

Catlin’s Arcadia and Palladium Picture House (1920, scarboroughuk.co.uk)

Old Kinderland Postcard (storiesfromscarborough.wordpress.com)

Scarborough Seafront Service Bus (1979, Tony Wilson)

Other recommended websites to view more old pictures of Scarborough are ScarboroughUK, and a great blog by Sarah Coggrave called Stories From Scarborough.
