SCARBOROUGH'S Sitwell family were among the cultural elite of their day.
The
Sitwell family has been associated with Scarborough at least since 1774
when, in common with many other visitors, Francis Hurt Sitwell came to
the resort, both for health as well as leisure.
Sir George grew up
in Scarborough since his mother had decided to base the family in the
town and had first lived at "Sunnyside", a modest villa which she had
built on the corner of Ramshill and Westbourne Grove, but later became
more permanently established at "Wood End" on The Crescent.
