    Whitby consists of ruins of St Hilda’s Abbey, high on Whitby’s East Cliff. Spreading below Whitby, a maze of alleyways and narrow streets run down to the busy quayside. From the old town of Whitby, 199 steps lead up to the parish church of St. Mary, whose churchyard on Whitby's East Cliff gave Bram Stoker the inspiration to write his world famous book, Dracula. Whitby is situated on the Yorkshire coast.   Famous people of Whitby are Captain James Cook, the 18th century explorer and voyager who had set sail in the Bark Endeavour from Whitby, the outstanding father and son whaling masters of the Scoreby family and pioneer photographer, Frank Meadow Sutcliffe.
