Hornsea is a small seaside resort town and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England at the eastern end of the Trans Pennine Trail. It is well known for its pottery factory, Hornsea Pottery. Along with exhibits of fascinating local history, the largest display of Hornsea Pottery in the world can be seen at the Hornsea Museum, which is located in Newbegin, the main street of Hornsea. It has many coastal defences such as sea walls, groynes and beach nourishment. A sea wall is a wall that is used to absorb waves. Groynes are rock or wooden types that hold material threatened by longshore drift. Beach nourishment is replacing a beach lost by longshore drift. Longshore drift is when waves hit the beach at a certain angle and move material up the beach. Despite these defences, Hornsea's primarily cliff-based shoreline is eroding at one of the fastest known rates in Europe.

From 1854 to 1964 Hornsea had a railway station which connected it to Hull. This line was opened by Joseph Armitage Wade, whose house once stood where Hornsea School and Language College stands today. A cottage close to the school was once owned by Lawrence of Arabia and Winston Churchill visited, and was photographed in, a house nearby. Another famous visitor to the town was the Victorian novelist Charlotte Brontë.[3] After the railway was axed by Dr Richard Beeching (see British Rail), the old line became the final lap of the Trans Pennine Trail. The old railway line is now a well maintained walking and cycling (bicycles only) trail. It is a very pleasant trail with appropriate stopping points for picnic lunches. 1854 (MDCCCLIV) was a common year starting on Sunday (see link for calendar). ...
