Show on map When built in 1935 this was designated as an Auxiliary Coastguard Watch Station
Between 1939 and 1945 it became a War Watch station, insulators on the rear of the building indicate its telephone connection to the adjacent Radar Station.
The building remained in use by the coastguard until 1972 and was rennovated in 1999 as part of the Heritage Coast Project.
It still commands excellent views over the coast.
Show on map The radar station was constructed in 1941 as part of the Coastal Defence/Chain Home Low early warning system. It was designated site M47 and the original radar was mounted on top of the semi-circular transmitter and receiving hut as shown in the illustration.

The site was later upgraded to be part of the Chain Home Extra Low system and was redesignated K47, with a new Transmitter and Receiving block.
There are two smaller buildings, one of which housed a generator and the other a fuel store.
At the other end of the field near the old railway, the bases of several accommodation blocks can be see, but none of the structure remains.
Show on map This brickworks was setup in 1900 to provide bricks for the nearby Ravenscar development that never materialised, it is located inside an old Alum quarry.
The remains of the single large Hoffman Kiln are still to be found on the site.
Although heavily overgrown the outer doors can still be identified
Despite the failure of Ravenscar, the brickworks was next to the railway and found work supplying bricks to Scarbrorough until the 1930s. The chinmeys on the site remained in place until demolition in the 1960s.
A bridge nearby still stands that carried the abanboned Whitby to Scarborough line
Show on map The tunnel was buiilt around 1885 and stands on the abandoned Scarborough-Whitby line
The tunnel was cut so W.H. Hammond, the lord of Raven Hall, didn’t have to see the railway actually crossing his land.
The tunnel is only 279 yards long but has a sharp curve and with the gradient up to Ravenscar being 1-in-39 it proved troublesome for many trains.
Show on map This mill is said to date from 1858, and unusually stands in a disused state rather than having been converted into a house.
I know Ravenscar is actually 30 miles from the Tees, but the site shall be taking a short holiday there for the next few days.
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 Very little information exists on the Saltburn Alum works which operated 1670-1695 and 1765-1775.
The semi-circular sandstone structure with a water-tight clay lining that is currently eroding out of the cliff strongly resembles a cistern for alum liquor such as those seen at well known alum working sites such as Boulby and Loftus.
Much timber and brickwork is also present, suggesting there was a building adjacent and perhaps even steeping pits.
The site is gradually being destroyed by erosion as a central wooden post was originally visible in the cistern.
Update 2013 : Sadly the remains of the stone cistern were completely destroyed by the storm surge on 5th December 2013 (photo by Simon Chapman)
Show on map This memorial is considerably more elaborate than most in the area.
The panel is carved by Sir William Reynold-StephensÂ
The memorial was unveiled by Major General Sir Percy Wilkinson on 14th November 1920, it was comissioned by Mr and Mrs Littleboy parents of Wilfred E Littleboy, who was killed at Ypres.
Show on map Between 1906 and 1937 the sands between Saltburn and Marske were used for speed record attempts.
Sir Malcolm Campbell recorded 138.08mph on 17th June 1922 in Sunbeam (although this was not recognised offically as electronic timers were not used)
The plaque say he reached 144.32mph in 1924, (at this time the record seems to have been beaten on a weekly basis)
On two wheels Ron Storey recorded 122.91mph in 1928 on a Brough Superior SS100
The plaque was unveiled in October 2011 by Desmond Heckle, one times holder of motorcycle speed record.
Show on map This metal pin is another part of the extensive network on anti-landing measures around Greatham Creek.
It was the mounting point for a Spigot Mortar or Blacker Bombard which would have been able to fire a 20lb anti-tank explosive approximately 100 yards, presumably at any invading force on the nearby bridge.
The original bridge which has since been replaced, was itself mined to allow its total destruction
