![Near site of Cleator Moor West station, 1986, Believed to be a northward view along the course of the former Cleator & Workington Junction line, which was built, along with various other lines, for transporting haematite iron ore from the rich mines in the area to the iron- and steel-works in the Workington and Harrington Disticts. For 100 years from the 1860s this area, nowadays almost reclaimed by Nature, had been heavily industrialised and honeycombed by railways: the remnants of spoil-heaps from the iron and coal mines can be seen on the horizon.
