Staithes Full virtual trip video Walk #gimbalwalkwithme

Staithes is a seaside village in North Yorkshire, England. Easington and Roxby Becks, two brooks that run into Staithes Beck, form the border between the unitary authorities of North Yorkshire and Redcar and Cleveland.The area located on the Redcar and Cleveland side is called Cowbar. Formerly one of the many fishing centres in England, Staithes is now largely a tourist destination within the North York Moors National Park.

The name Staithes derives from Old English and means 'landing-place'. It has been suggested that it is so named after being the port for the nearby Seaton Hall and Hinderwell.The spelling Steeas is sometimes used to indicate the traditional local dialect pronunciation.

At the turn of the 20th century, there were 80 full-time fishing boats putting out from Staithes. A hundred years later there are still a few part-time fisher men. There is a long tradition of using the coble (a traditional fishing vessel) in Staithes.

The permanent population of the village has dwindled due to more than half of the houses being second homes or holiday cottages. This has led to the erosion of Staithes' old culture, although a tradition for making fishing bonnets continues and the local fishermens' choir continues to perform. There is active local participation in the local RNLI Lifeboat station and crew.Locally, the name was traditionally pronounced "Steers"


Staithes
Staithes has numerous narrow streets and passageways; one of these, Dog Loup, with a width of just 18 inches (45.7 cm), is claimed to be the narrowest alley in the world. It was reported in 1997 that the Royal Mail were encouraging the occupants of Staithes to number their houses instead of relying on names. Whilst the regular postperson had no difficulty with the narrow streets and cottages, the relief postal staff were getting confused. Royal Mail also claimed it would aid efficiency by their postal machines which automatically read the addresses
