Show on map This tunnel carried the mill race for Norton Water Mill underneath the Clarence Railway embankment  that was built in the early 1830s. The modern railway still passes above.
The mill itself stood about 500m South, now underneath the A19.
Show on map A Tees Archaeology report states that the Guisborough Co-operative Corn Milling Society established the steam powered Mill in 1856.
The arch of a cartway into the mill yard can still be seen on the three story building. The modern 1850 datestone seems to disagree with the 1856 plaque.
A hinge remains from an older door or gate.
I have found reference in the 1883 Co-operative Wholesale Society Annual to the ‘Guisborough Provident Industrial Corn Mill Society’ being established in 1856, registered in May 1863 and dissolved in 1871
