 This Sandsend postcard view was taken after the tower was rebuilt on Lythe church 1911. The buildings to be seen include the chimney of the old alum works which are still intact. Sadly now gone and a loss to industrial archeology. Image courtesy of Maurice Grayson.
High Street, Lingdale; the village which owes its existence to the boom in iron stone mining. The well proportioned shop premises were in sharp contrast to the miners houses in the rest of the village. The image is from a Brittain and Wright postcard dating from the early 20th century. Image courtesy of Maurice Grayson.  Saltburn beach looking towards Marske, a large number of portable bathing tents are much in evidence. The beach from Saltburn to Marske was very popular in this 1920s for motor racing competitions along this stretch of sands. They continued to attract large crowds into the 1930s. Postcard courtesy of Maurice Grayson. |
