Kettleness
(1883 - 1958)
Kettleness Station had two platforms serving a passing loop. There was a substantial brick building incorporating the stationmaster’s house on the ‘up’ platform with a small wooden
waiting shelter
There was a small goods yard behind the ‘down’ platform with two sidings branching off the line at the north end of the station. One siding included a loop and served coal
drops sited immediate behind the ‘up’ platform
The station closed on May 5 1958 and the track-bed was lifted but the platforms are extant as is the goods yard weigh office and coal drops. The station is now called 'Seeonee Lair' and is run as an activity
centre and hostel by East Cleveland Scout District
The Cleveland Way footpath passes through Kettleness village closely following the railway track
