It was fantastic to join lots of friends from across the area yesterday at the Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum to celebrate a £65,200 donation from the Heritage Lottery Fund! There are some great new displays and this money will help to discover, catalogue and promote ironstone mining sites at Kilton, Lingdale, North Skelton, Brotton, Liverton Mines and Skinningrove Village itself.
If you haven't been to the Museum before, it's a fascinating insight into our history and this funding will support lots more outreach work with local school and community groups
