Show on map The location of the road between Slapewath and Guisborough has changed over the years, just to the south of its current course remains a much older sandstone bridge.
Its now surrounded by heavy undergrowth and is missing a few blocks in places.
The remains of a cobbled surface can be found on top.
Looking at old maps i would say it was the only road shown on the 1938 map, the 1958 suggests both exist and by 1968 its just the new more northerly location.
Show on map Trains last travelled along this railway line to Guisborough in 1964 (although the station here closed in 1951). This carriage is now used as an education centre.
The carriage dates from 1964 and was bought from the the Wensleydale Railway, its 63 feet long and weighs 32 tons.
Show on map There are numerous wooden carvings immediately around the car park area of the visitors centre.
These owls are the same as those in Errington Woods so must be by Steve Iredale
His work is generally animals, so this is most likely his too.
This one seems a little more basic, perhaps some sort of workshop of kids ?
This walker is Steve Iredale again and dates from the Diabetes UK Great North Walk in 2010
This final carving of a face into a live tree is very interesting.
Show on map A Kibble is a large iron tub, usually used for hauling material in a mine shaft. This one is thought to be associated with the Codhill / Hutton ironstone mines
The history of the Codhill Kibble is unclear as it was found near Highcliffe Farm part-filled with concrete, it was moved to Guisborough Forest Walkway after preservation work.
Show on map An ironstone tramway between the Chalenor mines near Guisborough and the Eston mines was built in 1914 when the underground link was severed.
Several traces of this remain, including this culvert for Moordale Beck with the 1914 date carved into the arch.
The arching has been strengthened a long time ago as the two lower tubes both resemble riveted boiler pipes.
Show on map Originally an alum shale quarry between 1776 and 1805.
In 1929 an aerial ropeway was installed to dump waste from the Spa Woods ironstone mine into the quarry, it was dismantled 1933-34 and moved to Upton Colliery.
The area is now heavily wooded so its difficult to interpret which spoil belongs to which phase.
Show on map Westworth Reservoir was built by the Guisborough Water Company around 1871, it has in recent years been abandoned.
I don’t know the exact date of closure and remodelling, but a 2002 report talks about the cross-section of the dam being left.
 
The overflow tower is the most striking reminder, along with a stone spillway which is gradually becoming overgrown.
 
A small building and plinth remain for an “interpretation panel” that clearly never materialised.
Plan of Spa Wood workings under the reservoir (triggered by discussion in the comments)
Show on map I’m back, after a few technical gremlins with the site.
An old hand-painted sign for a local surveyors office can be found on the corner of Knights restaurant on Fountain Street

The Tees Link footpath starts/ends here and connects the Cleveland Way with the Teesdale Way
Show on map 
In the stream are the footings for a rail bridge which connected Waterfall Ironstone mine to the branch for Skelton Park and Skelton Shaft mines.
A number of rails presumably originally from the bridge appear to have been reused to strengthen the bank on the right.
