Robert Young, 61, was originally from the town but had been living in Bridlington for the final two years of his life.
While walking past an amusement arcade on Cliff Street, Bridlington, on October 6 in 2016, Mr Young was hit by five or six tonnes of rubble during a storm, according to the inquest, and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The inquest, which began last Thursday at Hull Coroners’ Court, heard the retired man had planned to go shopping before the freak accident.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.

Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
