Bearpark

The site of Bearpark station, on the Consett to Durham line which closed to passengers in 1939. Freight trains, including those serving nearby Bearpark Colliery, continued until the 1960s when the tracks were lifted. A trackbed cyclepath now passes the site but all trace of the small station has gone. View south east towards Durham on a wet and gloomy November morning in 2012.
