About Sea Wall Heritage Trail
The Scarborough Maritime Heritage Centre, now in its 14th year of operation, was awarded £40,000 of National Lottery Heritage Funding for the Sea Wall Heritage Trail - Portholes in Time project. 31 engraved granite storyboards are installed on the mile-long Marine Drive. Each 'Porthole in Time' tells a small part of Scarborough’s rich and varied history.
Residents and visitors, together with students from local schools, helped select the historical topics to feature in the project. The trail of 31 information portholes was installed in November 2022 and inaugurated by Sir Alan Ayckbourn on 6th December 2022.
