Bridlington, a historic town in East Yorkshire, boasts a rich tapestry of over 1,000 years of history. Initially comprising two smaller settlements, it evolved into a fashionable resort during the nineteenth century, eventually consolidating into a single town by the early 1900s. Throughout its existence, Bridlington has witnessed a myriad of tragedies, triumphs, special events, and royal visits, as well as being the home of remarkable stories and characters. From the prestigious award of the very first George Cross to the remarkable contributions of Lawrence of Arabia during the interwar period, to the devastating bombing raids of the Second World War and the awe-inspiring Great Gale of 1871, the town has experienced its fair share of historical milestones. Moreover, Bridlington is adorned with unique tales and figures, including the tale of the Royal Victoria Rooms' tragic burning in 1933, a visit by Queen Henrietta Maria, and a lifeboat that boasts a remarkable 200-year history. In his comprehensive book, "A–Z of Bridlington," author Richard M. Jones delves into the intricate history of Bridlington, encompassing its streets, buildings, industries, and the individuals intertwined with the town.
