Date: 21st May 2019.'Picture James Hardisty.'YP Magazine.......Ravenscar, near between Whitby and Scarborough on the East Yorkshire Coast made famous by Victorian developers who planned a new Yorkshire resort with its very own coastal train line, large hotel and a number of built plots for sale. In the end the resort was never completed - hence the tag 'The Town That Never Was' - and the railway line finally closed in the 1960s. A couple from Malton, North Yorkshire Amanda Batcheler and Marcus Aldrich, have spent the last three years researching the history and wrote a book about Going Once..Going Twice..Going Wrong..about this forgotten seaside town.
