Established in 2020 for the purpose of raising awareness of the Battle of Flamborough Head for the benefit of local tourism, heritage and culture, and educational purposes.

The name “FILEY BAY 1779” was chosen because it encompasses everything – the battle, ships and individuals involved. It also recognises that the event is of significance to all the communities of Filey Bay including Filey, Primrose Valley, Hunmanby Gap, Reighton, Speeton, Buckton, Bempton and Flamborough, as the Battle would have been clearly visible and audible from all of these locations.
