The 199 Steps

There is an intimidating set of steps up to St Mary's Whitby. Actually they are not too bad. There are 'seats' every so often. They are actually benches for bearers to rest the coffin on the way to church!

The donkey road that runs alongside the steps is much more concerning!

This evening it was very overcast and the light poor. I did not help myself by forgetting the quick release plate for the camera, so I had to up the ISO and hand-hold.
