LOCATION and Town Attractions Cliff Street is a narrow little one-way road leading from Flowergate up towards The "Whalebones" and Captain Cook's statue. It's very convenient for everything.

THE SUN May 11th 2006 9 Slatebed beach - beneath the abbey cliff - superb for finding fossils at low tide! P Good family pubs with superb harbour views are The Duke of York and The Board. (There are also excellent Indian and Chinese restaurant/take aways by the station.) F Our favourite fish and chip shop is also the closest on Silver St! The railway and bus stations are about 10 minutes walk. (The bus takes about 2 hours direct from York. Trains take hours to get anywhere, but quite often you'll be pulled by a steam engine!)
