St Martin's Vicarage

St Martin's Vicarage is a historic building in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, a town in England. The house was constructed as the vicarage of St Martin-on-the-Hill, Scarborough. Some sources date it to 1863, but Nikolaus Pevsner argues that it must be later, as inside there is stained glass by Charles Eamer Kempe, which was manufactured around 1889. Like the church, it was designed by G. F. Bodley, but is in the Queen Anne style, similar to work by Norman Shaw. The building was grade II* listed in 1973. The vicarage is built of red brick, with moulded dressings, a string course and a tile roof. It has two storeys and attics, Three of the bays project under pediments and contain small-pane sash windows, and above each bay is a gable containing a window, over which is a pediment. Between the left two bays is a doorway, above which is a carved panel and a pediment.

St Andrew's United Reformed Church is a church in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, a town in England. The church was constructed for the Congregational Union of England and Wales, its third church in the town after ones on Eastborough and Westborough, and is now part of the United Reformed Church.

It is in a 13th-century Gothic revival style, and is described by Nikolaus Pevsner as being "as spectacular as any Scarborough church". The building was grade II listed in 1973, and upgraded to grade II* in 1993. The church is built of stone. It consists of a nave with a clerestory, north and south transepts, a chancel, a southwest steeple, and a northwest apse.

Wessex Court is a historic terrace of buildings in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, a town in England. The terrace was built in the 1840s, with the central section being the Crown Spa Hotel, and the wings being houses. The terrace was grade II* listed in 1953. Jimmy Savile purchased a flat in one of the buildings for the use of his mother, and after her death preserved it in her memory. Following Saville's death and the exposure of his crimes, the flat was purchased by the anti-child abuse campaigner Rodney Walker. The building is stuccoed, with rusticated ground floor, a continuous balcony above the ground floor, a moulded cornice, and a panelled parapet. The hotel has four storeys, the middle four bays projecting with Greek Doric columns on the ground floor and Corinthian columns on the upper floors, above which is a pediment containing a crown motif. The flanking wings have three storeys and attics, and each house has three bays. The windows are sashes, and all the ground floor openings have round-arched heads, the doorways with semicircular fanlights. Many original features of the hotel survive, while in 2009, a rooftop extension was added.
