The name of this quaint
seaside resort signifies that it sits at the
end of a long beach, so it’s little surprise
that the Romans came here and built a cement
works. Later the area around the village was
mined for alum, which was a key constituent in
the dyeing of wool. Georgian Mulgrave Castle
sits on land between two rivers and received
honourable mentions from two illustrious
guests, Wordsworth and Dickens. |
