A quiet walk through Annfield Plain, County Durham, in February 2012 - although it wasn't always this quiet... see image 35896 for the scene forty-seven years earlier. The houses of St. Aidans Crescent and the stone wall are still standing but the parachute water tank is long gone and the 9F's no longer haul trainloads of iron ore from Tyne Dock up the 1 in 35 towards Consett.
