West Hill Local Business Marketing Intelligence

West Hill is one of East Riding of Yorkshire's local areas, within postcode district YO16, bordering Carnaby, Bessingby and Old Town. Bridlington's harbour was first recorded in 1113 when the monks of Bridlington Priory used it to export wool, and today the town calls itself the lobster capital of Europe, landing over 300 tonnes a year.

According to the most recent ONS snapshot (March 2026), there were 14,220 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area. Bridlington businesses voted resoundingly against renewing the Yorkshire Coast Business Improvement District, with just 38 ballots cast in favour, so the scheme was scrapped after its first five-year term rather than continuing as a live organisation.

The employment rate in East Riding of Yorkshire was 77.3% in 2023 (ONS). Numbers like that are part of the backdrop marketing intelligence is built to work within.
