On the back of this card it says ’Photo by T. C. Booth, Loftus, Yorks’. Rev. T. Colledge Booth was the Pastor of Loftus Congregational Church. He came to his first pastorate at Loftus in June, 1897, when the church was in the building on North Road.

A lovely view, but having walked up this bank in the past I really feel for the horse. Image courtesy of Beryl Morris.
Built in 1874 by Bell Brothers local mine owners. Now converted into houses. (photo courtesy of Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum)
I don’t think you could see it like this now as it is so over grown all around it, but a lovely photo. (photo courtesy of Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum)
Looking south 24th February 1973, or Brotton station as it used to be. Do you remeber it like this?
Apart from the broad concrete strip of the promenade, the pier and Hunt Cliffe not much of this seaside view remains – sad really!
Do you remember them like this? About what date would this photo be taken?
It’s thanks to Ray Brown for this photo of the pier as it used to be at Saltburn, I should be able to remember it like this but I guess the memory is going because I cannot recall it
Ah, Saltburn with a long pier, a little before my time ,but I do remember the long pier, the end was washed away with a storm in October 1974. Thanks to Julie Riddiough for the update.
A cold snowy picture of the railway line from Carlin How to Loftus, had you crossed the footbridge and followed the path it would have taken you down onto Glovers Path where Whitcliffe mine was and then onto the bottom of Mill Bank leading you to either Loftus or Carlin How. |

but doesn’t it look lovely? Now I have been reading about the pier and at one time it was 1.500 feet long and the seaward end we see here was removed by a storm on October 29th 1974
