A Trip to Saltburn by the Sea
In July 1894 the ‘Saltburn Times’ noted the following … The ‘Weekly Telegraph’ (Sheffield) this week contains an interesting and appreciative article on Saltburn, nearly three columns in length, and with two illustrations. The following short extract will serve to show the tenor of the article, which we hope to print in full later on; “Saltburn-by-the-Sea is simply delightful: it is emphatically a health as well as a seaside resort. To those who live in busy cities, to the many who suffer from brain fag, for those whose nerves are unstrung, and who are weary and depressed, Saltburn is an Elysium; and for those who are in good health, full of animal spirits , and brimming over with holiday fun, that has been securely bottle up for eleven months and a fortnight, Saltburn will be just the place for rational enjoyment, and for the laying up of plentiful supply of vigour and robustness for the time that must elapse before another holiday arrives; whilst for children it is simply an earthly Paradise.” The article was eventually published in the ‘Saltburn Times’ on Saturday 29th September 1894.
