About
The Polite Tourist Presents a SATURDAY EVENING Walk in SCARBOROUGH - Sleepless in Scarboro'
Situated on the exhilarating coastline of North Yorkshire and affectionately known as the ‘Queen of English watering places’ – Scarboro' occupies a fascinating place within the history of seaside resorts.
Along with a history of besieged castles, dinosaur remains, literary prodigies, fishing ports, religious persecution, folklore, medicinal drinking waters, smuggling, and pirate radio – Scarboro' enjoys an enduring charm.
And beginning in APRIL 2024 – The Polite Tourist will peel back the murky shadows of a seaside town’s criminal past with a stroll through the old cobbled streets in search of the long forgotten dead.
For those of a curious and hardy temperament – why not come along and listen to The Polite Tourist one SATURDAY EVENING in SCARBOROUGH as they share with you the tales of those ordinary folk including the tragedy of an unwanted child, and the mystery of a besotted spouse.
Hear also of poignant tale of a confused domestic servant and the callous behaviour of a father.
And ALL lost to history – until now!
However, for those of a sensitive nature who are averse to real stories of tears, heartache and tragedy – a walk with The Polite Tourist one SATURDAY EVENING may NOT be to your taste.
Rendezvous: Dotty the Dolphin on Vernon Road in SCARBOROUGH. YO11 2NN.
