Roseberry Parkway railway station

Roseberry Parkway railway station (also known as Nunthorpe Parkway) is a proposed railway station which would be between Nunthorpe and Great Ayton railway stations on the Esk Valley Line, in North Yorkshire, England. The station was proposed in August 2019 by a joint project between Redcar & Cleveland and Middlesbrough Councils and the Tees Valley Combined Authority. The project is "aimed at easing road congestion and improving access to East Cleveland".A parkway station near Nunthorpe has been proposed since at least 2009 when funds were made available by the UK Government for studies into improving transport links in the East Cleveland area. The station was listed as Nunthorpe Parkway in the Tees Valley Metro Project documentation of 2010, though this maintained that any future station would be constructed after 2014. Roseberry Parkway station would serve an estimated population of 70,000 people and seek to encourage 30,000 car journeys away from the Marton Crawl, a name applied to the gridlock along the A-roads (A172 and A171) leading northwards into Middlesbrough.Although an exact site is not yet proposed, it is suggested that the station is situated in the shadow of Roseberry Topping and would be a transport hub connecting pedestrians, bikes, cars and buses with trains. Trains to Middlesbrough would run half-hourly, with the prospect of trains to Whitby being doubled. Local opinion on the proposals was mixed, with some suggesting a revamp of the station at Teesside Airport as a preferred option for a rail and bus interchange.

Normanby Hall, Redcar and Cleveland

Normanby Hall is a mansion on the western side of Normanby in Redcar and Cleveland. The manor of Normanby was held at an early period by the de Brus family, of Skelton Castle; and subsequently passed to Marmaduke de Thweng. Later it came into the possession of the Percys, and then, of the Moneys. At the beginning of the eighteenth century, the estate belonged to William Pennyman, Esq. When he died, in 1718, buried at Eston Church, his daughters Elizabeth and Joanna, married two brothers – Rev. William Consett and Captain Matthew Consett, sons of William Consett of Linthorpe. The manor lands were split, Reverend William Consett taking the eastern part of the estate, upon which he built the elegant and commodious Normanby House, becoming known as the Manor House. The other brother, Captain Matthew Consett, took the part of the manor with the ancient Hall. The Hall with a moiety of the estate was purchased in 1748, by Ralph Jackson, on the death of Captain Consett and in 1790 he common fields around it were enclosed to become parkland for the mansion. It descended through the Jackson family, in the late 1880s, to Major Charles Ward-Jackson M.P., who was lord of the manor, and who died in 1930.In the twentieth century, it came into the hands of Charles Amer, a former jazzband leader (Charles Amer Orchestra), Middlesbrough F.C. Chairman, owner of the Coatham Hotel, in Redcar, the Marton Hotel and Country Club and, later, property developer. Amer later sold the parkland belonging to the Hall and houses were built. The Hall itself, after several years as a retirement home, is now unoccupied and in a state of disrepair.
