BRIDLINGTON | Full tour of Bridlington Old Town and High Street, away from the seafront and beach and the filming location for the Dads Army movie.
Also watch our tour of Whitby 👉🏻 • WHITBY TOUR | Full tou...
We visit Bridlington Old Town for a walk from Bridlington Priory and The Bayle Museum and then along to High Street to see the cute independent shops, antique shops, cafes, pubs and tea rooms.
High Street is like stepping back in time and it's a really well preserved street with none of your huge high street franchises and instead you get fantastic coffee shops and pubs and you can shop in the little shops there.
Bridlington Old Town was also used as a filming location for the 2016 movie Dads Army with an amazing cast including:
Toby Jones as Captain Mainwaring.
Bill Nighy as Sergeant Wilson.
Catherine Zeta-Jones as Rose Winters.
Tom Courtenay as Lance-Corporal Jones.
Blake Harrison as Private Pike.
Michael Gambon as Private Godfrey.
Bill Paterson as Private Frazer.
Daniel Mays as Private Walker.
High Street in Bridlington Old Town was decorated and dressed to represent Walmington On Sea from the popular TV show turned into a new movie.
Here's what the official Bridlington Old Town Website has to say:
"Without doubt many thousands of visitors to Bridlington fail to enjoy the full experience that Bridlington has to offer due to their not being aware of Bridlington's Old Town -the town's heritage showcase and now a major movie tourism destination. The Old Town has become world famous for the transformation of its shops and many buildings to 'Walmington On Sea' for the Universal Pictures Dad's Army film which was released worldwide on 5th February 2016. The Old Town was used for several weeks and the film's release brought increased visitor numbers and footfall to its now famous High Street. Walmington On Sea Brewery, Jones The Butchers Shop, Marigolds Tea Rooms and Mercers Shoe Shop are amongst features still recognisable where the filming took place. A Dad's Army Trail in the Old Town was created.
The stunning 900 year old Priory Church dates back to 1113AD and was originally one of England’s leading monasteries. This awe-inspiring building is definitely worth a visit. Opposite the Priory is The Green and Bayle Museum which helps to bring our colourful past to life,with interactive displays.
The Old Town is packed full of independent shops and galleries with plenty of hidden treasures to be found. There are stylish art galleries next door to traditional pubs. And the shops sell everything from grandfather clocks to Granny’s favourite tea-loaf. So after a morning exploring the nearby Bridlington beaches or the wonderful Flamborough Heritage Coast, come and explore our streets.
Bridlington Old Town has also been featured in BBC2's Antiques Road Trip and offers the opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy a casual browse around the antique shops and galleries, sampling the wonderful food on offer at the bistros and restaurants along one of the best preserved Georgian high streets in the country.
We must not forget the range of pubs offering sustenance for the weary Old Town shopper where you can continue to soak up the Old Town atmosphere, including Walmington On Sea Brewery,"

As someone who was born and raised there, left like pretty much everyone I went to school with and generally doesn't think a lot of the place (living there is completely different to going on holiday or a day trip) it's interesting to see it through the eyes of someone else.

That was great. I was born just down the road from Brid, had family there and mum and dad both moved back there when they retired. I'm currently in New Zealand but we're moving back there in October. We did manage to get back over there in May for my mums funeral. You need to go to Bempton Cliffs RSPB reserve as well, the cliff top walk from Bridlington to Sewerby Hall and the Amy Johnson display is fantastic as well.

True, the old town is blissfully unchanged, however, the seafront has deteriorated from a charming peaceful area of lawns, flowerbeds and wooden benches circa 1950's, into an ugly noisy dirty smelly fare ground. Such a shame!

At 19.50 if you had continued on a bit you would have come to the old stocks (you could see them in the background) which were still used up to the 20th century. At 23.50 you showed the old maternity hospital (now apartments) where I was born in 1941 next to the Star Inn which is the oldest pub in town and well worth a visit.
