Most date from the Middle Ages when they marked boundaries or routes across the Moors. Over 30 are named and at the road you pass White Cross, also known as Fat Betty. Last century Rosedale had a flourishing ironstone industry. White Cross Over to the left the line on the hillside marks the route of the railway which was built in 1861 to transport the iron ore from Rosedale to Durham. It was dismantled in 1929. Further along the daleside is a row of arched kilns where the ironstone was roasted to remove impurities and make it lighter for transportation. Looking at this peaceful valley today it is hard to imagine that it was such a hive of industry and had a population of nearly 3,000 people.

  • Railway Seaside Holiday Posters Along the Scenic Coast From
    Railway Seaside Holiday Posters along the Scenic Coast from Scarborough to Whitby Including a brief history of the Railway Line and its Stations By Stephen Riley The Scarborough and Whitby Railway line followed a difficult but scenic route along the North Yorkshire coast. It eventually opened on 16th July 1885 long after the first proposal to open a line between Scarborough and Whitby in 1848. One of the problems in building a line was the hilly topography and many of the early schemes failed because of the difficulty finding an economic route and raising sufficient capital to construct the line. Before this time the coast between Scarborough and Whitby was rarely visited by holidaymakers and Robin Hood’s Bay was a relatively unknown fishing village. A bill was put before Parliament and received Royal Assent on 5th July 1865 authorising the incorporation of the Scarborough & Whitby Railway. Their planned line was not started due to insufficient finance. In 1870 a new route was proposed and this time funds became available, construction work starting on 3rd June 1872. Progress was exceedingly slow and by 1877 work on the line came to a halt when insufficient capital could not be raised to complete it and the original engineer and contractor pulled out. The work resumed in June 1881 with the appointment of new contractors John Waddell & Son under new engineers, Sir Charles Fox & Sons who completed the line, included the building of a 13-arch red brick viaduct over the River Esk near Whitby. The official opening of the Scarborough & Whitby Railway (S&WR) took place a day before public services commenced, on 15 July 1885, with a special train for the directors of the company and dignitaries from Scarborough and Whitby.

  • The North York Moors Re-Visited
    The Yorkshire Archaeological & Historical Society The North York Moors Re-visited Anthony Silson BSc (Hons) MSc PGCE FRGS The North York Moors Re-visited Anthony Silson BSc (Hons) MSc PGCE FRGS Key words: physical environment; agricultural land use; rural settlement; services; tourism; transport; urban settlement. Thirty or so years ago, I wrote an essay about The North York Moors for the BBC Domesday Survey (Silson 1986). This new essay examines the extent to which changes have occurred since then. Shortly after the first article was published in1986, I was interested enough to do further field work on the area so some information used here is for 1985 and some for 1986. Likewise contemporary fieldwork was undertaken in both 2015 and 2016. The area allocated to me in 1985 excluded the eastern part of the region administered by The North York Moors National Park Authority, hereafter: NYMNPA, but included some peripheral areas administered by Hambleton and Ryedale District Councils. The same area is discussed in this essay, and the extent of the area is delimited in Figure 1. This essay is illustrated by plates located near the end. Figure 1 Morpholgical features of The North York Moors Physical Environment The North York Moors is a tectonically relatively stable inland area (Goudie 1990). Hence its morphology has scarcely had time to change in a mere thirty years. An example of a very small change has been the making of a small pond about two km to the east of Thirsk. But the major morphological contrasts continue to be controlled by lithological contrasts in underlying rocks (Straw and Clayton 1979).
