Hornsea is small resort along the coast in East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
Hornsea is at the eastern end of the Trans Pennine Trail, a long-distance path that runs from coast to coast across northern England, covering a distance of 333.1 km (207 miles). Hornsea is also famous for Hornsea Pottery, a pottery business that was founded in 1949 and produced potteries and clay figurines until 2000, when it went into receivership.
The modern town of Hornsea is like any other British seaside resorts, with its shops selling fish and chips, ice cream and traditional seaside paraphernalia.

About this website
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
