Show on map Its difficult to imagine such a picturesque place once being an area of heavy industry. The pit closed in 1911 but the shaft is open and only surrounded by a fence, a constant rush of water being heard from inside.
The corner of the mine managers house remains standing (although I don’t know for how much longer)
Show on map Originally built in the 12th century, in use until 1848 when it was abandoned due to the opening of a new church in Thorpe Thewles (which was itself replaced in 1885 with the current church)
Show on map Overlooked the junction and previously mentioned milestone, before the road was slight re-alligned to the current roundabout.
Show on map Situated on cemetery corner at the junction with the Redcar road. Currently I have no idea of its age or origins, although the fact it points to Kirkleatham rather than Redcar is perhaps a clue.
Show on map Hidden away behind the library, several rows of very uniform gravestones ranging from the 1850s through to the early 1900s.

Show on map I’ve had this scrap of paper that I bought from the lifeboat shop for at least 20 years, I’ve rewritten the legend but the rest is straight from the original.
Show on map I’ve not yet found any record of the ships name, or date it was wrecked.
The remains of the ship can be seen depending on the tides and sand levels.
Show on map Built around 1916 to detect approaching Zeppelins, now sits surrounded by houses but safe due to being a scheduled ancient monument.
The base of the column where the listening trumpet was mounted is a few feet in front of the mirror.

Show on map The shale heap is visible from miles around and a number of building survive on the ground.
Although one building, possible a workshop is in danger of complete collapse.
The winder house is much more sturdy as its built from reinforced concrete, although in recent years the steps pictured have collapsed
Note: This substantial structure was subsequently demolished and is sadly no longer on the site
The capped 694ft shaft is also visible
In the side of a small shale heap is a small tunnel, perhaps some kind of shelter or storage area as this isn’t a drift mine.
Away in the woods to the east is a small building, I initially though it may be a powder magazine but its not very sturdy and a 1950s map shows a meter house for the Cleveland Water Company in this area.
