Of glory's past

This is the view overlooking this amazing glassed space at Scarborough Spa backwards the remains of Scarborough Castle, over looking it’s harbour.

There is evidence that people have lived on the hill that looked out over Doggerland since prehistory.

    Awesome – Iv’e tried pictures from the spa and none of them quite cut it. This though is perfect.
    I think the sky really makes it. Perfect in black and white and a great title.
    Instant fave!
