Unusual View - Skinningrove Jetty

Thanks to Owen Rooks for this photograph and following caption:

This is a shot I took from a helicopter of the works site in June 2006. I don’t know what goes on there these days so I’ll leave it to the experts to identify any noteworthy features!

Boulby Mine

Boulby Mine

One of the pit horses at the Boulby ironstone mine.  I believe it is by the Travelling Drift.

One of the men to be seen working behind the horse was known as Pidge.

Sandra tells us that Brian took this photo of the train crossing the bridge below Carlin How, and the next photo, from their bedroom window on St. Hilda’s Terrace.  

The train is ’The Boulby Flyer’ on the first excursion organised by Saltburn Railtours (courtesy of Dr Dallara of Loftus) in August 1995. (Thanks to their website for this information). 

Thanks to Sandra Hutchinson for the photograph.
