Beckhole
(1836 - 1914)
Beckhole Station opened in May 1836 as part of the Whitby and Pickering Railway
A deviation of the line was built in 1865 to avoid the use of a rope-hauled inclined plane; a short section of the replaced line from Grosmont to Beckhole remained open as the Beck Hole branch
]
From 1908 to 1914 the branch was used for summer passenger traffic from Whitby, after which the line only carried freight traffic ended in 1951
