Commercial Street

Off the western (left) end of TA0388 : Wykeham Street Bridge and opposite the junction with TA0388 : Sinclair Court, the photograph is looking south-easterly along Commercial Street toward Falsgrave.

The lone tree is near the site of damage caused during the Second World War when, on 18th March 1941, Commercial Street was struck by a parachute mine, killing seven and injuring many others (Scarborough in the 1930s and ’40s by Richard James Percy – ISBN 0 860767 134 8).
