Whitby Abbey Church - West Front (2 x PiPs)
Perhaps better enlarged
The remains of the west front are in a battered and weathered condition: the shell seems to be 14th century, but the window tracery looks to be of mid 15th century date (see PiP). On the 14th December 1914, four cruisers of the Imperial German Navy appeared off the headland and fired on the town from a range of a mile and an half (2.4 km), damaging the signal station, the coastguard cottages and the west front of the abbey itself. The Ministry of Works rebuilt it, using historic masonry, in the 1920's.
