17.8.2017. The Saltburn Cliff Tramway links the town of Saltburn with the only remaining pleasure pier on the whole of the North East and Yorkshire coast.
Designed and installed by George Croydon Marks in 1884, to replace a vertical hoist that had been declared unsafe (!).
It is the oldest water balanced funicular still in operation in the UK. In 1924 and electrically operated water pump was installed and the whole installation has been refurbished in the last ten years.
A fascinating piece of Victorian engineering and well worth a visit.
Welcome to "The Upstate Colony", a straight friendly, LGBTQIA+ operated residential and RP realm.
USC was built in the tradition of place like Saint Tropez, Ibiza or the Hamptons, which started as hideaways for the urban intellectuals and Bohemia in the 1960's, followed by new rich, socialites and tycoons in the 70's and 80's creating a vibrant mix of people and subculture.
Made a quick stop earlier at Lighthouse Hill to look at the North Cliffs and the pretty sea thrift. I leave in a couple of days and not sure if I'll have time to get back before Wednesday. Oh and the lighthouse is way off in the distance to the left :)
From near the top of the highest point of the Trælanípa cliffs you can see that the ocean has continuously attacked weak points of the rock at the waterline and created what appears to be some caves. For a perspective of the height of the cliffs, there are people near the cliff edge just left of center in the photo. The village of Miðvágur can be seen at the far left and is the starting point for the hike to Trælanípa. The clouds can seem like an ever present companion while in the Faroes.

You may not sea it directly but the difference in height in this landscape is about 80 m. This are the cliffs of Normandy seen from above. And yes, the tide is low.

I found the cliff walk quite scary -- and I'm not usually afraid of heights. But I seem to be getting more so as I get older. I did it anyway! And the views were worth it.
This is at First in Switzerland, above the town of Grindelwald. The peaks across the valley are the Wetterhorn, 3692 m (12,113 ft), and the Schreckhorn, 4,078 m (13,379 ft); the glacier between is the Upper Grindelwald Glacier.
