The Slapewath Gap
The defile between Belmont Bank and Airy Hill, the “natural” route east from Guisborough and on to Whitby. A route that would clearly connect up with the medieval trod, the Quakers Causeway, across the moors. In 1861 the Cleveland Railway was built through the gap to access the ironstone mines of East Cleveland enticing landowners along the route to seek a piece of the ironstone boom. Among them, Henry Thomas who owned the Hollin Hill Farm, left of centre in the photo. Subsequently, Slapewath Mine was opened and operated by Thomas Charlton and Company. To house his workers Charlton built the rows of terraced houses just right of centre, known to this day as Charltons. Initially, the mine was accessed by a drift going in under the main road but in 1878 a shaft was sunk to the south of Hollin Hill Farm and connected to the Cleveland Railway by a short branch line.

At the bus stop, Slapewath
An awkwardly placed bus stop for following traffic, especially as in principle buses in this direction could go left at the turning. This a small loop returning shortly to the main A171 road.
