North York Moors National Park

The North York Moors National Park extends from the beautiful cliff scenery on the coast into a great expanse of country farther inland, an area of mainly moorland and heath, of pines and broom and a variety of wild flowers. One of the few villages in this sparsely-populated region is Goathland, the terminus of the steam railroad operating from Whitby.
