It was built between 1892 and 1894 because of the high number of shipwrecks that were occurring at Withernsea when vessels could not see the lights at either Spurn Head or Flamborough. It was not designed to be lived in, the tower has no dividing floors only the spiral staircase leading to the Service and Lamp Rooms at the top. The Lighthouse was decommissioned at the end of June 1976 and is now a museum of memorabilia about the RNLI Coastguards and local history. The museum also houses an exhibition on the life of actress Kay Kendall (1926-1959) who was a film star in the 1950s. She was born in the town and died of leukaemia.

  • Proposed Installation of Antennas and Ancillary Development at Existing Telecommunications Base Station, Withernsea Lighthouse, Hull Road, Withernsea, HU19 2DY
    Proposed installation of antennas and ancillary development at existing telecommunications base station, Withernsea Lighthouse, Hull Road, Withernsea, HU19 2DY Planning/Heritage/Design & Access Statement The following has been provided to accompany the planning application for the addition of 3x no antennas, ground based apparatus and ancillary development at the above address. The development site lies within Withernsea. It is located on a listed building. Application Site Due to the small-scale nature of the proposed development at an existing telecommunications base station, this statement is being kept purposefully short as a proportionate response to the anticipated impacts from the proposal. There are 31 different planning applications which are listed with the property with a number of these reacting to both planning applications and listed building consent applications for communications apparatus dating back to 1996. We will not repeat all of these here and the Council will obviously hold all this planning history. The most recent of these ‘telecommunications’ applications was submitted in 2015 and involved the upgrade of the Cornerstone apparatus with the removal of 4 antennas and installation of 6 (with associated development). There was also an associated listed building consent application. • 15/01678/PLB • 15/01676/PLF This is considered to be the most relevant material consideration in the case of the application. The response from the conservation officer stated: NO OBJECTION - Withernsea Lighthouse is a late Victorian grade II Listed Building, erected in 1892 to 1893. Under section 16 (2) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, local authorities when considering whether to grant listed building consent for any works the local planning authority or the Secretary of State shall have special regard to the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses.

  • East Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    East Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities second edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… With a foreword by The Hon. Mrs Susan Cunliffe-Lister, HM Lord-Lieutenant of the East Riding of Yorkshire This directory was put together by people with a disability for people with a disability, though the places and information included will be useful to anyone. With a wealth of hidden treasures, East Yorkshire is often referred to as ‘Britain’s best kept secret’. Savour its traditions, stately homes, stunning nature reserves and colourful seaside life. East Yorkshire has many claims to fame; did you know, for example, that Britain’s tallest man came from Market Weighton, and that Hull is home to England’s smallest window? For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help to encourage better access for all in the future. Revised March 2015.
