Esk Valley Mine (also known as Holme House Mine) was a Victorian ironstone mine near Grosmont, unique for being a deep-shaft operation with its own planned workers’ community. Unlike most local mines, which were drift mines (horizontal tunnels into hillsides), Esk Valley was a deep-shaft mine, with a shaft sunk about 60 metres straight down to reach the ironstone seam. Ore was hauled up using a steam-powered winding engine, whose base and boiler supports can still be seen today.

If you are following the Cleveland Way it would be too easy to take the shortcut from the top of the hill, heading towards Staithes as the crow flies. Following the track down the headland to the Nab does not add that much distance, and gives better views.

The monument includes a prehistoric standing stone and the associated buried deposits immediately around its base. The monument, which is Listed Grade II is sited on moorland beside the Castleton to Hutton-Le-Hole road where it is crossed by a trackway. It stands at the intersection of the parishes of Rosendale West, Farndale East and Westerdale. The Margery Bradley standing stone is considered to date to the Bronze Age and to be roughly contemporary with Flat Howe round barrow which lies about 240m to the south west and is the subject of a separate scheduling. The stone is a rough, undressed slab around 1m wide, 0.35m thick and standing 2.1m above the current ground surface. It is orientated so that its largest surfaces face east and west and not to line up with either the road or the trackway. At the top of the west face there are the carved initials `T.D.' which are thought to stand for Thomas Duncombe and to have been left in the 18th century as an estate boundary mark. Carved into the foot of the east face there is an Ordnance Survey benchmark.

Whilst this waterfall is relatively accessible, as others point out it is a bit of a scramble, with the rocks still quite slippery and treacherous in the height of summer, as they are permanently in the shade and damp. In summer, the valley that the track to the waterfall runs through provides welcome respite from the heat of the day.

Many of the photos posted are actually Thomason Foss, which is 50m further upstream. This little waterfall is very broad and shallow, almost like a set of rapids, with lots of huge flat boulders flanking the northern shore that make a perfect perch for an impromptu rest. Note that the track from Beck Hole to this waterfall is very boggy in places, and part of the track is very high up and narrow, making it slightly difficult to navigate in summer when the gorse bushes are encroaching over the track. Slow and steady with good footwear is essential.
