I think as a Roman signal station it's primary purpose would be to pass messages along the east coast, to and from the North Sea end of Hadrian's Wall, and perhaps even to the legionary station at York, which could be done very quickly and probably faster than a messenger on horseback could travel. Enemy ships were unlikely as this was before the Saxon and Viking invasions, and the Roman navy were active along Britain's east coast. Scarborough harbour was possibly established at this time, though it was customary to haul boats out of the water or beach them, for which Scarborough has two perfect beaches.
Thanks so much for the comment mate. I love coming to Yorkshire, and was there again a few weeks back. I took some footage from a few other places I’d visited there so expect some more content featuring Yorkshire to come soon! Thanks again mate.
IF YOU EVER GO FAR ENOUGH ON FILEY BRIGG AND LOOK UP THE COAST YOU CAN SEE SCARBORUGH CASTLE GET A GREAT VIEW THROUGH BINNOCS AND SAME FROM THE CASTLE LOOKING DOWN THE SOUTH BAY
That is not a well! It is a bottomless pit! They used tho through people down there when the king order it....my dad said so. I love Scarborough so much went again today with the children and my brother. Lots of lovely memories growing for family holidays with my brothers and sisters ❤️🏰⛱️☠️🍦
Oh nice! Pretty interesting! Scarborough Castle's certainly got some history. Surprised you didn't find some older stuff too as it's been settled since Roman times! Thanks for the comment mate.
