Disused Railway, Seaham Harbour. Seaham harbour had an extensive and complicated railway system up until the second half of the 20th century. The railway operated on two levels, the upper level bringing in goods (primarily coal) for loading onto ships via staiths, while the lower level allowed access to the dockside. The image shows the remains of a gantry supporting railway sleepers at the southern end of the harbour for the upper level rail complex.
