 The ford at Hutton-le-Hole; I know it’s a quite a way from East Cleveland but we do have some lovely postcards of the North Yorkshire Moors and this is not as you would see Hutton-le-Hole today. Taken about 1900 and believed to be a Tom Watson postcard. Image courtesy of Tina Dowey.
A well-known landmark on the North Yorkshire Moors. Many years ago if you passed this you would put a penny on the top for the travellers or tramps to take as they went past. This and other crosses on the moors were erected as markers for the monks as they travelled the moor from abbey to abbey. Image courtesy of Tina Dowey.  A lovely postcard by Tom Watson Lythe, of the castle at Mulgrave. This non-tinted view of the castle is believed to date from a similar period as the other view of the castle on the Archive. Image courtesy of Tina Dowey.  Easington End Farm (comprising: 6 acres, 0 roods and 4 poles) with a double fronted house all let for £45 on a Lady Day (25th March) tenancy. David advises: “That looks like the building which is now the Tiger Inn.”  Well here I am once again asking for help, do you know this terrace of houses and where they are? Could it be East Crescent? David Richardson tells us: ”These are the houses at the end of East Crescent, the structure on the hillside behind them is a Nursery.” Image courtesy of Eileen Hicks and many thanks to David Richardson for the update.  Entitled ”Higher Zetland Road., Loftus” this hand tinted postcard dates from pre 1903. I love the horse and looking closely at the pavement near the horse it looks to be raised quite high? And in the back ground, almost in the middle of the road is ”White Hat Richardson”! Image courtesy of Olive Bennett and Eileen Hicks.  The road that leads to South Loftus looks a muddy mess but of course they wouldn’t have been tarmaced when this photograph was taken. Tina Johnson tells us: ”This was the beck that ran over the road into Espiner’s Wood and the mud was caused by traffic going through the water; the bridge was for people to cross over the beck”.  This was lot 23 in the Grinkle Park sale catalogue; not the Tiger Inn we know today, but the earlier one that stood beyond the end of Morehead Terrace. As well as the living quarters the catalogue stated that there was a Public Bar and a Bar Parlour with tiled fireplace (wow!). With outside ladies and gents WC. David Bertram advised: “Actually, this didn’t “stand on Morehead Terrace” but still stands just along from the Terrace on Whitby Road and is now named The White House. I know ‘cos I used to live there!”  Twizziegill Farm 227 acres 0 roods 30 poles; the largest farm on the estate. Another property let on Ladyday tennancy of £163 per annum, it was withdrawn from the sale later selling privately for £4,700. |
