Staithes
Description
A study of Staithes in North Yorkshire, in two sections. The first considers the community, and contains an introduction to the village and its history, and sections on the social pattern (dress, education, religion, entertainment, dialect) and custom and belief (superstition, birth, marriage and death customs, festival customs). The second section focusses on fishing, and comprises sections on boats, crab, herring and line fishing, and the weather (weatherlore, weather proverbs and the tides). Photographs illustrating the village and aspects of village life are included, and comprise some taken by the collector, and copies taken from the Frank Meadow Sutcliffe Collection in Whitby.
