On Saturday 14th of May there will be another opportunity to explore the surface remains of ironstone mining at Upleatham with local author and ironstone mining expert Simon Chapman.
The meeting place is the car park at the west end of the woods, just off Grewgrass Lane, at 1pm. The walking is reasonably level and dry, unless the monsoon arrives in which case it might be a little muddy in places.
Hi, My ancestor Oliver Short worked as an Ironstone Miner at Marske in 1879. Could you please advise how I could research this mine and photos. Thanks for your bog. Kind Regards Brenda
