Morning, I’m researching a grade 2 listed building in Hartburn village and was wondering if anyone had any information. The property is 39, 41 & 43 Hartburn village. I’ve checked the national archives but all they have on there is a brief description of the building and not much else. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi There,
I’m wondering if you can help me. I left an original post on the website for information on the Commercial Inn, Norton Road on January 9th 2017 and received replies from two of your conributors within a month confirming its existence (albeit named the Commercial Tavern).
Thinking that was the end of it, I did not check for further comment until this Christmas time. I now see that some months later a Mr D. Proctor lodged a further post that I had never picked up. As this person is an unknown relative and as my response has been so late, I wonder if you could alert him to the fact that I have belatedly replied and give him my email address so that he can contact me, if he so wishes.
Thanks in anticipation

I was reading the report about kirkleatham Hall Stables.
I would like to let you know i have information on just why the stable have not been renovated.
Its not as odd as it sounds. Work was due to commence quite sometime ago to renovate it (not sure to what) but on a site inspection it was found that the lofting area of the stables was full of a nest of bats. It is estimated that the colony is around 2000 strong.

Good to see the photos of the old mine workings in Errington Woods, we enjoyed a very interesting and informative walk there recently, led by Simon Chapman the author of the book “Upleatham Ironstone Mine”.
There are several plaques around New Marske giving historical details, a photographic record of those may be of interest. Also…I notice that part of the Lifeboat station at South Gare has been demolished recently…..will it still be there in the future?

My Ggrandfather, William Parish, was a blast furnaceman, designated a superman as he was immensly strong and supposedly earned £1 a day in 1937. He worked for Farnley Ironworks and like you I am trying to find out more about this Ironworks as some more of my relatives worked there.
I found one of my relatives on a census and it looked as though he lived perhaps in cottages as pages and pages of the census were designated ‘Farnley Iron Works’.
