Upleatham Railways

The popular walking area of Errington Woods, on the hill behind New Marske, was once the site of Cleveland's most important ironstone mine after Eston. Little is visible nearly a century after closure, but the old railway leading to it can still be walked, as can the extensive tramway system which linked the mine entrances. We'll have a steady walk round to see them, and share in some of the industrial history of this once-busy part of Cleveland. And we'll enjoy the countryside and fine views on the way. The walk lasts around 4 hours with a local history enthusiast keeping you informed along the way. Refreshments will be available too,
