Hi Brian I found the sources for that and there were other shoes that survived and collected, I believe that these remains found their way to a museum in Newcastle but couldn't find a record after that....
On the Whitley Castle Website you can see some illustrations and their brochure has similar illustrations of I believe the shoes in questions, there is also an illustration in a history of the region that I traced...
Antony Hedley wrote an article on some shoes found in Carlisle, in it he mentions examining the shoes from Whitley including the prussic acid on the hobnails brought to him by a Mr Henderson

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
