New Marske
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New Marske is a village in the borough of Redcar and Cleveland and the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire, England, in the region of North East England. Roughly a mile south west of Marske-by-the-Sea and set on a hillside, it was originally a group of miner's terraced houses, but has expanded in the past 40 years.
New Marske has no railway station, but the closest, Longbeck railway station, links to Saltburn, Middlesbrough and Darlington. New Marske is situated near an area of woodland called Errington Woods, in which are the remains of disused mine workings. There are several farms in the vicinity, and there is a primary school serving the recently-built housing estate. The recent building of housing on the old primary school site has meant that the other school of the village has been extended to cater for the new children and closing of the old school. This new housing reflects the rapid growth of villages in the area.
There is a small row of shops known locally as the "top shops" due to their position uphill from the older part of the village. This is generally considered the centre of the village. This row of shops includes a Newsagent, bakery, pizzeria, hairdressers, corner shop and video rental.
