Saltburn-by-the-Sea is a seaside town in the civil parish of Saltburn, Marske and New Marske, in the Redcar and Cleveland district, in the historic boundaries of the North Riding of Yorkshire.

The original settlement, located in the Saltburn Gill was a center for smugglers, and publican John Andrew is referred to as 'king of smugglers. In 1856, the hamlet consisted of the Ship Inn and a row of houses, occupied by farmers and fishermen.

The town had been founded by Quakers, which meant a ban on public houses. Alcohol was served in the hotels and the bars attached to them, and in the town’s many private members' clubs. Saltburn's first public house, which wasn’t within a hotel, was The Victoria, which opened in December 1982.

Saltburn Athleticformed in 1998 and cover all age groups from 7 - 17 years of age. The club now has a senior side playing in the North Riding Football League from the start of this season, and are based at Hobs Hill Field and the neighbouring Huntcliff School.

My only previous visit to Saltburn was for Honest Paul’s birthday five years ago. I enjoyed that visit so I’ve finally made a return, this time with “the breadknife” for a leisurely pub crawl. Pints were consumed in The Ship Inn, Saltburn Cricket, Bowls and Tennis Club, Brockley Hall, Guns Bar and the Pillar Box. Then onwards to Marske when we visited the Smugglers Den, Clarendon and finally the Lockdown Micropub, before heading back home on the Northern rattler.
