These historic lifebuoys from Whitby Harbour reflect the town’s deep maritime roots. The first, painted in red and white, features the phrase “NEVER CAN TELL – A WHITBY,” a nod to the unpredictability of the sea. The second bears the mark of Perry Buoy, a trusted British manufacturer known for producing life-saving equipment throughout the mid to late 20th century. These lifebuoys likely date from the 1960s to 1980s and represent a lasting symbol of coastal safety.
