Doing the Coast to Coast walk in July, we came across this bridge called Surrender. This was near Swaledale, Yorks. Where did the name come from?

Only thing i could come up with
The Records of the Northern Mine Research Society are kept at:-


38 Main Street,

Sutton in Craven,

KEIGHLEY

Yorkshire

BD20 7HD

England


Tel. 01535 635388 or email martgill@legend.co.uk


The Records are open for use by all students of mining history, by appointment only. The Recorder is usually able to make time available for those with only evenings or weekends to spare.


The Recorder will provide answers to specific questions received by telephone or mail if the information can reasonably be provided from the archival holdings. Photocopies of specific documents (50p each plus post and packing) can be provided, but there is no way of copying large plans

It has to be linked to mines perhaps it was a toll bridge where you had to surrender money to continue.

Only other suggestion is write a letter to the Daily Mail questions section, im sure someone will come up with your answer
