Site Location
Whitby is situated on the east coast of Yorkshire, within the Scarborough
district. The town is surrounded on its landward sides by the North York
Moors National Park and the North Sea abuts it on the northern side. The
coastal areas are a designated part of the North Yorkshire and Cleveland
Heritage Coast. Whitby is located 19 miles north of the coastal town of
Scarborough on the A171. To the north west of Whitby is the large town of
Middlesbrough, which is 31 miles away and accessed along the A174.

Whitby is served by the Yorkshire Coastliner bus line, operating from Leeds,
Tadcaster, York, Scarborough, Bridlington, Pickering and Malton with
connections beyond Yorkshire. Arriva North East runs bus services connecting
Whitby to Scarborough and Middlesbrough. The nearest airport, about 45
miles (72 km) from Whitby, is Teeside International Airport, which has a regular
service from Amsterdam, Schiphol airport. The town is also on the Northern
Rail Line which provides direct access to Middlesborough.

The town is served by Whitby railway station which is the end of the Esk Valley
Line from Middlesbrough.

The site itself is located less than 2 miles south east of Whitby Town Centre,
with direct access on to the A171 road. The immediate surrounding uses are
a mixture of residential, education, national supermarkets, retail outlets and
agricultural.

Site Description

The site is irregular in shape, and covers an area of approximately 12.9 ha

runs from Whitby to Scarborough. To the south of the site is Broomfields
Farm.
