Stainsacre

All Saints' Church is the parish church of Hawsker, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The first chapel in Hawsker was built in the Anglo-Saxon period, from which a cross-shaft survives. A new chapel, dedicated to All Saints, was built by Aschetin de Hawsker in the 1140s. It survived into the 16th century, but no trace of it now remains. The current church was built between 1876 and 1877, to a design by E. H. Smales. Originally in the parish of St Mary's Church, Whitby, it was given its own parish in 1878. The church was grade II listed in 1989. The church is in sandstone and has slate roofs with red ridge tiles. It consists of a nave, a south porch, a central tower, and a chancel with a north organ chamber and vestry. The tower has buttresses, a gabled staircase turret, lancet bell openings, and a steeply hipped roof with finials and a cross. The porch is gabled and timber framed, and the doorway has an ogee-arched head and a tympanum containing the date. Inside, there are several stained glass windows, various wall monuments, two original brass candelabra.

Hawsker was a railway station on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway. It opened on 16 July 1885, and served the villages of High Hawsker, Low Hawsker and Stainsacre. Hawsker was a small intermediate stop and its ticket sales reflected this; it sold only 8,982 tickets in 1922. The Scarborough & Whitby railway was a victim of the Beeching cuts and all freight traffic to Hawsker was curtailed by 10 August 1964 and the station closed to passengers on 8 March 1965. The track from Whitby was left in situ until 1973 pending potash traffic which never materialised. The road overbridge immediately south of the station was removed in the 1990s and replaced with a dual pelican crossing. The station is now (2007) the headquarters of Trailways Cycle Hire and has old railway carriages used as accommodation on site. In the 2010s a brick wing (in a style similar to the rest of the building) was added to the station house's southeast side.

Whitby Cemetery (or Larpool Cemetery) is a burial ground in the town of Whitby, North Yorkshire, England. Previous to the burial ground being open, interments took place in the graveyard around St Mary's Church on the east cliff of the town, by the coastline. The Larpool burial ground was opened in the 1860s, and a report from the early 2020s estimated the ground would run out of space between 2025 and 2027. Efforts to find an extension, or an alternative space, have proved problematic.
