Whitby Abbey by Beausoleil
Whitby Abbey is an English Heritage site. We were lucky enough to see it under a rainbow . . . although I'm not sure how lucky we were to be spending another sightseeing day in the rain. The Abbey was a 7th-century Christian monastery that later became a Benedictine abbey. The abbey church overlooks the North Sea on the east cliff above Whitby in North Yorkshire, England, a center of the medieval Northumbrian kingdom. The Abbey was founded in AD 657 under the rule of Saint Hilda a s a double monastery of both men and women.

Exterior - Beck Isle Museum with historic farm equipment by Beausoleil
We walked back past The Rose Inn, across the bridge to the Beck Isle Museum, paid and entered. They have a bit of everything including entire rooms and historic shop interiors. The outside features antique farm equipment in the back and a lovely view of the bridge and Pickering Beck (river) in the front. This area was badly flooded in 2007 and there are photographs in the museum of the flooding. It is called Beck Isle Museum because the museum is literally on an island during high water when it floods.

The White Swan Inn - Pickering by Beausoleil
Originally built in 1532 as a four-room cottage, it was soon extended and pressed into service as a coaching inn for the York to Whitby stagecoach. The White Swan has been open for business as an inn more or less ever since the 16th century. Two notable exceptions were when it served as the town’s Court House for a brief spell, and during the last War when it served as Pickering Garrison’s NCO Mess. The family running today has owned it since 1953.
