A railway was built by 1865, and iron smelting began in 1874. A jetty on the coast built in 1880 allowed seagoing vessels to carry heavy cargoes from the area. Mining continued until 1958 and primary iron production until the 1970s.

The fish was 11 ft 4in (3.3 metres) long and weighed 140 lb (63.5 kg). Graham Hill, the science officer at The Deep, an aquarium in Kingston upon Hull, said that he had never heard of another oarfish being caught off the coast of Britain.
