Whitby’s 199 Steps and old town after dark
The glow of the lamp above the 199 Steps is a familiar sight to anyone who has wandered through Whitby in the evening. Looking down towards Church Street and the harbour, the steps lead into a scene of rooftops, town lights and the sea beyond.
Rain brings another quality to these photographs. Wet stonework and cobbles catch the lamplight, adding reflections and deeper contrasts. Around Church Street, Henrietta Street and the old market, smaller street scenes capture the character of Whitby after dark.
Choose a colour photograph for the warmth of the evening lights, or black and white for the detail of the cobbles and buildings. Our 199 Steps photography gallery includes more views of this location through the seasons.
Whitby Harbour and Swing Bridge at night
After dark, the lights around Whitby Harbour stretch across the River Esk, with fishing boats and waterfront buildings reflected in the water. On calm nights, the Swing Bridge and its reflections become the centre of the picture, surrounded by the lights of the town.
These quieter scenes sit alongside photographs of Whitby’s celebrations, when fireworks bring colour to the sky above the harbour. From a close view of moored boats to a wider composition across the waterfront, each photograph captures a different evening atmosphere.
A harbour print can bring back memories of an evening walk beside the water. Explore our Whitby Harbour photographs for more views in daylight, winter weather and changing light.
Whitby Abbey illuminated and the Whalebones after dark
Whitby Abbey’s illuminations reveal the shapes of its windows, arches and ruined walls in vivid colour. Against the night sky, the stonework becomes the focus of the scene, whether photographed close to the ruins or from across the town.
Our collection includes views of the illuminated Abbey framed by the Whalebones, bringing two recognisable Whitby landmarks into one composition. These photographs suit anyone drawn to the town’s gothic atmosphere, while moonlit coastal scenes offer a quieter view of Whitby at night.
For more photographs of the ruins, from colourful illuminations to snow and changing daylight, explore our Whitby Abbey photography gallery.
Choosing your Whitby night print or canvas
Think about which side of Whitby you would like to bring into your home: warm street lighting, reflections across the harbour or the bold colours of the illuminated Abbey. A familiar evening view can also make a thoughtful gift for someone who loves the town.
Photographic prints start at £17.50, with canvas, framed and mounted options available. Open your chosen photograph to compare the print types and sizes, then select any additional finish offered for that product.
Every photograph is taken by Laurie Smithies, and our family-run business makes your prints and wall art in Yorkshire. Free UK postage and packaging is included.
