The Search for Eston Mine 🇬🇧

Eston Nab (a rocky promontory) sits between Redcar, Guisborough & Middlesborough.
It is the site of Bronze Age burial mounds and an Iron Age hill fort (what looks like later roman wall remains) as well as a look out point during the Napoleonic war & World War 2.

I search for Eston Mine, a mine for ironstone used from 1850 - 1949. will I find it?

More information on the mine & some really cool photos of what it looked like are here
