Ian,
Perhaps you're already aware, but the 'Gazetteer of Cleveland
Ironstone Mines', S.K Chapman, 1976 and 'Catalogue of Cleveland
Ironstone Mines', Peter Tuffs, 1996 both contain brief details of this
mine.
The Geological Memoir, The Jurassic Rocks of Britain, Vol.1,
Yorkshire, may also contain details.
Have you approached the Cleveland Industrial Archaeology Society ? It
may be worth joining them.
Please contact me off list if you want further details.
Regards
Mike
