Central Tramway is Scarborough's iconic cliff railway full of character and charm. The company was established in 1881 and is committed to preserving the tramway's Victorian heritage, whilst maintaining the highest standards in modern engineering and operational safety.

As one of the country's busiest cliff railways and a site of local historical significance, the company shares its rich social and industrial history through educational talks, tours, and books. The tramway also offers a companion scheme for local residents to access reduced fares and updates.

The eclectic nature of the list shows what a great variety there is to our seaside heritage and how examples can be found all around the UK.

The Seaside Heritage Network is asking people to get behind their favourite nomination to help promote and protect the things that make our seaside distinctive.
