Stainsacre Lane Industrial Estate is situated to the south east of Whitby Town Centre, approximately 1.5 miles from the harbour and main retail core. This is Whitby’s primary employment area, hosting a mix of light industrial, storage, trade counter and commercial users.

The estate lies directly off Stainsacre Lane (A171), one of the main arterial routes serving the town. The site is well positioned for local logistics and trade related activity, with relatively unconstrained vehicle access, including for light goods vehicles and trade deliveries.

Whitby is a historic seaside town located on the North Yorkshire coast. It is relatively isolated in regional terms, with no large conurbations immediately adjacent. The nearest larger towns are:

Scarborough – approx. 20 miles south via the A171
Middlesbrough – approx. 30 miles north west via the A171 and A174
York – approx. 45 miles south west

The location benefits from a stable local economy and consistent tourism led seasonal uplift, making it valuable for specific industrial occupiers targeting the Whitby, Scarborough and North York Moors catchment.
