Fraisthorpe - Izeria

Fraisthorpe is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Barmston, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is situated approximately 4 miles (6 km) south of Bridlington town centre. It lies to the east of the A165 road. Up to 2009, Fraisthorpe beach was used to hold a yearly Elim Pentecostal Church youth and family camp. In 1891 the parish had a population of 95. Within Fraisthorpe is the Grade II listed Anglican chapel dedicated to St Edmund. Originally 13th century, it was remodelled in 1893 by Smith and Brodrick. The chancel and nave are unified, and constructed of rubble and cobble. Remaining from the 1893 rebuild are the 4-foot (1.2 m) high remains of a 13th-century pier in the south wall, which Pevsner asserted might be evidence of a former south aisle.

Wilsthorpe, East Riding of Yorkshire

Wilsthorpe is a hamlet in the civil parish of Carnaby, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the coast just off the A165 road and approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Bridlington. The name Wilsthorpe derives from the Old English personal name Wifel, and the Old Norse þorp meaning 'secondary settlement'. In 2009 the East Riding of Yorkshire Council constructed a new 150 place secure boat compound at Wilsthorpe to replace an existing facility at South Shore, Bridlington. This is a first step in creating an integrated transport facility for Bridlington. As part of the first phase, access to the hamlet was improved by the addition of a roundabout on the A165 (now A1038) which also provided access to a new park and ride facility on South Shore adjacent to the hamlet.
