The ruins of Whitby Abbey crown a headland towering over the historic fishing port of Whitby. The headland has hosted St Hild’s Anglo-Saxon monastery, the great medieval abbey and a Stuart mansion, and it’s long been the focus of myths and legends. Most famously, it helped inspire Bram Stoker’s Victorian vampire novel, Dracula.
