Wilsthorpe is a hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the coast just off the A165 road and approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Bridlington. It forms part of the civil parish of Carnaby. In 2009 the East Riding of Yorkshire Council constructed a new 150 place secure boat compound at Wilsthorpe to replace an existing facility at South Shore, Bridlington. This is a first step in creating an integrated transport facility for Bridlington. As part of the first phase access to the hamlet was improved by the addition of a roundabout on the A165 (now A1038) which also provided access to a new park and ride facility on South Shore adjacent to the hamlet.

Bridlington Spa

Bridlington Spa is a dance hall, theatre and conference centre in Bridlington, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. Refurbished between 2006 and 2008 and further updated with a new branding in 2016, the venue boasts a large Art Deco ball room, Edwardian theatre, art gallery and a selection of other meeting and event spaces; all featuring outstanding views over Bridlington's South Bay. The original Spa on the site was built in 1896; which consisted of a theatre and seaside pavilion. A fire in 1906 saw the theatre destroyed and a replacement opera house was built in 1907 and still forms part of the building today. The local authority took control of the buildings in 1914, acquired it in 1919 and rebuilt all but the theatre in 1926. A further fire destroyed these later buildings in 1932 and work started almost immediately to construct their replacements. Bridlington Spa continues to be successfully owned and operated by East Riding of Yorkshire Council. Between 2006 and 2009 the venue was completely refurbished at a cost of £20.5 million with funding provided by Yorkshire Forward, European Development Fund and council funding. It reopened in May 2008 under the name The Spa Bridlington. In May 2016, Bridlington Spa's theatre was further developed bringing a centre aisle to the stalls auditorium. The seat rows on each side of the new aisle were reinstalled in sweeping curves to improve the sight lines in the space. In December 2016, the venue undertook a full rebranding in advance of the imminent commencement of Hull UK City of Culture 2017. The rebrand, conceived and designed by Fred Marketing in Hull, changed the name back to Bridlington Spa and introduced a new multi-adaptive logo and a unified style for the building exteriors, interiors, website and printed media. Bridlington Spa remains a popular venue on the UK concert circuit having a maximum capacity for a standing concert of 3,800. The venue has most recently hosted gigs by Madness, Last Shadow Puppets, The 1975 and Kasabian. It was at Bridlington Spa that Oasis played their final indoor concert.
