Disused Railway, Seaham Harbour
Seaham harbour had an extensive and complicated railway system up until the second half of the 20th century. The railway operated on two levels, the upper level bringing in goods (primarily coal) for loading onto ships via staiths, while the lower level allowed access to the dockside. The image shows the remains of a gantry supporting railway sleepers at the southern end of the harbour for the upper level rail complex.

Seaham Harbour -- Ship being Unloaded.
It looks like sand being unloaded which seems strange considering all the sand that's available on the coast. In some areas such as South Shields taking sand form the beaches is illegal. BUT is it the right type of sand that is available locally. There were similar problems with cola many years ago. Local cola wasn't suitable for the power station at Blyth so it was shipped in!
