Ravenscar, North Yorkshire

Ravenscar is a coastal village in the county of North Yorkshire, England. It is within the civil parish of Staintondale and the North York Moors National Park, and is 10 miles (16 km) north of Scarborough. From 1974 to 2023 it was part of the Borough of Scarborough. It is now administered by the unitary North Yorkshire Council. A National Trail, the 110-mile (180 km) Cleveland Way, passes through Ravenscar, as does the Cinder Track, a multi-use path that forms part of National Cycle Route 1. Ravenscar is also the eastern terminus of the challenging cross-moor Lyke Wake Walk, which ends where it meets the coast road. The sea around the area hosts a seal colony.

Ravenscar railway station

Ravenscar was a railway station on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway and served the village of Ravenscar in the English county of North Yorkshire. It first opened in 1885 and finally closed in 1965 along with the rest of the line. The only remaining structure from the station is one of its platforms, but the Cinder Track, a multi-use trail that uses much of the rail line, passes by it.

Bent Rigg radar station

Bent Rigg Radar Station, also known as Royal Air Force Ravenscar, and Ravenscar tracking station, was a radar site located at Bent Rigg, 0.6 miles (1 km) south of Ravenscar, North Yorkshire, England. Several radar stations had been located in the Ravenscar area since 1938, but a more permanent site was built at Bent Rigg in 1941, which was crewed by technicians and other staff from the Royal Air Force. Bent Rigg and the wider location around Ravenscar were deemed "attractive" for the siting of long-range finding equipment. It was originally part of the Coastal Defence/Chain Home Low (CD/CHL) system, designed to detect shipping. Later, it was upgraded with more powerful equipment as part of the Chain Home Extra Low (CHEL). The last recorded use of the station was in September 1944, and it is believed that the site closed soon afterwards. A few structures remain at the site, with the foundations of the accommodation blocks still extant near an abandoned railway line to the west. The site is open to the public, being located next to the Cleveland Way, and the National Trust has erected information boards detailing the buildings and the history of the site.
