Planning your visit

Standing on the site of the first ironstone mine in Cleveland, Land of Iron allows you to get up close and explore a rich and fascinating history. This hands-on journey takes you back 150 years to a time of industrial revolution when the area and its people supplied over a third of the world's Iron and Steel.

The museum has a separate, signposted, disabled car park at the rear and the museum is wheelchair accessible throughout.
Land of Iron is on the site of Loftus Mine, occupying old buildings. Unfortunately, due to these constraints, we regret that the tour is unsuitable for visitors in large motorised mobility scooters.
Volunteers will provide assistance in difficult areas of the tour where possible. Helpers will be admitted free of charge. Unfortunately we are unable to allow dogs - other than assistance dogs - inside the museum and mining areas.
Land of Iron lies in the centre of Skinningrove Valley in the North East of England, 15 miles (24km) along the coast from Middlesbrough and Whitby.
