Foreshore Walk, Staithes

As part of this term's project on Oceans, Seton School pupils, accompanied by John Buglass, Kevin Cale and group members, enjoyed an informative walk along the foreshore at Staithes in search of relics relating to the fishing and ironstone industries, and as well as looking at marine life, fossils and the geology of the cliffs.
