Scarborough Light
Scarborough’s lighthouse stands on Vincent’s Pier, completed in 1752 and named after its engineer, William Vincent, The lighthouse, first constructed 1801-06, was seriously damaged during the bombardment of Scarborough by German cruisers on December 16th 1914. The lighthouse tower had to be dismantled and was rebuilt in 1931. Some 500 shells were fired on the town and eighteen people killed.
The lighthouse is currently the home of Scarborough Yacht Club.
The gun on right of picture is a 1914 Vickers pattern 13 pounder gun. Raised by Scarborough Sub-aqua Club and local fishermen October 1982, recovered from a depth of 100 feet (30 meters) from the wreck of the S. S. Hornsund, sunk by torpedo 23 September 1917 2-5 miles south east of this location. Airlifted into this position by a Wessex helicopter of D flight 22 squadron Royal Air Force 2 June 1984.
