Show on map The mill race started at a pair of breached dams to the west of the viaduct.
 
 
It runs along the north bank of the beck, alongside the modern footpath. There appear to be some remains here relating to a time water still flowed.
 
The ditch that remains continues east towards the mill site where there are some markers for a long forgotten Marske Mill trail.

Its been a long time since I added any new features, but I thought an alphabetic list of all the posts on the site might be useful rather than having to navigate through all the posts chronologically or by category.

Some people say this is a First World War jetty, it may well have been reused / rebuilt then but the 1894 OS maps already shows a tramway running from the powder wharf in the direction of the gare, joining up with the tramway on which sail bogies were also known to run. This would tie in nicely with 1880’s submarine mine loading complex on the gare which presumably needed a supply of explosives.
   
The small inlet immediately to the south east is known as Powder Hole.

‘Mare et Ferro’ – Sea and Iron, granted 10th October 1922 (Coatham Enclosure was built in the 1930s)
The heavily eroded parts at the top are iron ingots and a blast furnace, they can be seen better in this printed version
Show on map The “Docks” are actually a set of six water troughs beside the road
The origin of their name is unclear, the only explanation around seems to be that a “wag” named them that (not the footballers wife type)
Show on map The Wainstones are a huge natural rock formation, very popular with climbers
There are vast formations such as one resembling a Sphinx head (note climber in for scale to the bottom right of the photo below right)
There are inscriptions all over the rocks, from very modern graffiti to much older beautifully carved names and dates.
 
 
There is an inscription somewhere which I failed to find and photograph that was alleged by antiquarians to be a memorial inscription to a slain Danish chieftain, although other explanations were later given that sounds a lot more plausible.
