About this listen

 There are at least thirteen other Scarboroughs in the world, but the Scarborough on Yorkshire's coast in England is the first and parent of all the others. This is a new account of a 2000-year old history of a place that has been Iron-Age camp, Roman signal station, Vikings' lair, Angevin castle, European fish fair, shipbuilding port and Britain's earliiest watering resort that invented the holiday by the sea. Jack Binns was born in Keighley in the West Riding of Yorkshire and educated at the grammar school there and at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge. After more than 30 years teaching, as head of history at Scarborough Sixth Form College he took early retirement in 1992. When he is not reading and writing local history, Jack enjoys playing crown green bowls and sampling red wines and real ales. Jack lives in Scarborough and is the acknowledged authority on the town's history. This scholarly, yet readable account of Scarborough's history is fully illustrated and has a bibliography to allow for further study in the town's history.
