Turn left at the junction and head uphill along Saltburn Road. After crossing a small piece of waste ground the route comes out again onto a residential road, and again you turn right and soon come back onto Saltburn Road, which is busy at this point but there is a pavement and then a path on the verge. At last you turn left on a bridleway labelled for Saltburn Gill Nature Reserve. And then suddenly you reach the water treatment plant at the bottom of the Gill, and come to the road. If not, there are steps just to the left of the Seaview which are off the road and take you up to the top lift station. So in conclusion this is a lovely walk; although there is a lot of pavement walking at the start, the views are lovely in this section, and then Saltburn Gill is a total contrast....

It follows the Cleveland Way, which is well signposted, for a short distance before turning left onto a byway and then left again onto Trouthall Lane (I once drove my car down this lane, just to see what it was like, never again! I ended up with a fractured fuel pipe) but it is a lovely lane to walk, with extensive views across farmland towards the village of Lingdale. Just before the railway bridge you see Elmora Nurseries, locally known as Mario's. Go under the railway bridges in North Skelton then turn immediately right to find the Cleveland Street route again. On the OS map this goes immediately left, but you actually need to walk up the track until you reach the railway bridge on your right, where you will see on your left the path you need to take. You go straight on, bearing slightly right, for a few yards, then turn left and cross the route of an old railway line in a cutting and then you will find a stile leading into a field. Alternatively, you can turn left just after crossing the active railway line and follow a path parallel to the line till it reaches a track parallel to the bypass, where you turn right until you reach the bridge crossing the bypass....
