Fyling Hall railway station

Fyling Hall railway station was located on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway and opened on 16 July 1885. Named after Fyling Hall near Fylingthorpe, it served a small rural area with a catchment of less than 200 people. The station had one platform with facilities such as toilets, a goods store, waiting room, booking office, and signal cabin. A single-road goods yard behind the platform handled livestock and general goods but lacked a permanent crane. It was often misspelled as "Flying Hall" in tourist literature.

The station was 13 miles 45 chains (21.8 km) north of Scarborough and 8 miles 8 chains (13 km) south of Whitby West Cliff. In 1911, it served a catchment of 200 people and issued 5,700 tickets. It closed temporarily from 1 December 1915 to 18 September 1920 as a wartime economy measure. In 1934, it became a block post to allow two trains to travel in the same direction on the line between Ravenscar and Robin Hood’s Bay. A passing loop was proposed but rejected due to low traffic levels outside short periods.

The station became an unstaffed halt from 5 May 1958, with a siding remaining for public deliveries. Freight services ended on 4 May 1964, and the station closed entirely on 8 March 1965. The site now serves as part of the railway path between Robin Hood’s Bay and Ravenscar, with the former station converted into a dwelling and its platforms overgrown with vegetation.
