Robin Hood's Bay, North Yorkshire

Canon 1100D. North Yorkshire Moors National Park, North Yorkshire, England. UK.

Robin Hood’s Bay lies in the ancient parish of Fylingdales. The name itself is believed to be derived from the Old English word ‘Fygela’ which meant ‘marshy ground’. The first evidence of man in the area was 3000 years ago when Bronze Age burial grounds were dug on the high moorland a mile or so south of the village. These are known as Robin Hood’s Butts. Some 1500 years later, Roman soldiers had a stone signal tower built at Ravenscar about the 4 th century AD.

Robin Hood’s Bay, Yorkshire Coast Robin Hood’s Bay is a true gem of the Yorkshire Coastline. Brooding cliffs tower over a village of quaint charming cottages which spill right down to the edge of the sea. This picturesque destination is perfect for a cosy getaway where you can embrace the village’s unusual architecture and uncover the fascinating smugglers secrets of the bay. These huge rocks form part of the sea defences as this area has a lot of land reclaimed by the sea and landslides are common place. By Paul Thompson Photography

Watercolour on 140 lb. Arches cold press paper. This is based on a photo I took when we last visited North Yorkshire two years ago. This section of buildings was right beside the Bumblewick Tea Rooms. I know they are found in Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby both of which we visited that day. I am not quite certain which area the photo depicts, however. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. This was painted using only two colours, Quinacradone Gold, and Antwerp Blue. !http://ih0.redbubble.net/work.7796341.1.papergc,441x415,w,ffffff.v4.jpg! !http://ih1.redbubble.net/work.7796341.1.lp,375x360,b,m,TWVtb3JpZXMgb2YgUm9iaW4gSG9vZCdzIEJheQ%3D%3D.jpg! !http://ih1.redbubble.net/work.7796341.1.fp,375x360,black,off_white,flat30,m,ffffff.jp...
