Danes Dyke Danes’ Dyke consists of prehistoric earthworks, possibly intended as a defence, and woodland that runs 2½ miles across Flamborough Head. Despite its name, Danes’ Dyke had nothing to do with the Danes, and was a much earlier site - probably dating back to the Bronze Age.

Pillbox near Beacon Hill In this photo, what appears to be a pillbox can be seen overlooking the sea. The pillbox may be a Type 22, if it is indeed a pillbox. Inside, there are metal brackets where a wooden shelf would have been fitted had it been a Type 22. There is full access to this structure but there is little to look at internally.
