Brig "Visiter"

Memorial

What is recorded here

On the 18th January 1881 the Brig “VISITER” ran ashore in Robin Hood's Bay. No local boat could be launched on account of the violence of the storm, so the Whitby lifeboat was brought overland past this point ~ a distance of 6 miles ~ through snowdrifts
