IN PICTURES: Historic photographs from when the Yorkshire Coast looked very different to how it does now

The Yorkshire Coast has changed considerably over the past century. Photos show us not just how fashions have changed, but also how different the landscape looks at well.

One of the most striking images in this collection of photos is of the sea defences at Robin Hood's Bay, they certainly appear much more substantial now. Take time to compare the images of the past with what you know to be there now, some of these pictures may really surprise you!
