Steam special (Cumbrian Coast Express) approaching Whitehaven. Locomotive "46115 - Scots Guardsman" is rounding Redness Point and about to pass behind "Whitey Rock".

This stone work runs behind Whitey Rock. It supports the route of the railway. It would appear, from the staining on the stonework that various industrial by-products were dumped here. The fence is a relatively modern addition.

Looking towards Lowca - between the North Pier lighthouse and Redness Point - the area just above the shoreline was the site (now marked by the two tanks) on which the Fletcher Jennings locomotives were built.

Whitey Rock, the "twin towers and the route of the railway are below the cliffs, with Bransty, now part of Whitehaven, some more of which is visible to the right. The large shed is probably on the site of one of Whitehaven's former coal mines.

Patch of sunlight has caused the "Whitey Rock" (and the shed roof on the right) to stand out against their surrounds, especially with the shade in the foreground.

Close up of the slot that wave action has caused under Whitey Rock.

The side of Whitey Rock that overlooks the sea. It is being seriously undercut by wave action.

Another of the local landmarks. The Cumbrian Coast Railway runs along a shelf a little way above the base of he cliffs here, the actual alignment is behind Whitey Rock.

The yacht with the yellow hull is "Jennifer" (can't recall the name of the other yacht) - Whitey Rock is in the background.

Looking across at Bransty, Whitey Rock and some industrial features, as we cruise past, heading towards Workington on a slightly longer proving cruise.

This conspicuous feature on the shoreline, underneath Bransty, is "whitey rock" ... This slag bank is almost the only feature remaining to mark the location of the Lonsdale Haematite Ironworks, which ceased production at the very start of the twentieth century, just after Whitehaven's shipyards had closed, greatly reducing demand.
