Stanhope

Leaving Stanhope heading west there is a local back road, that heads to Broomlee and Dandry Shield, which crosses the railway at Crag Nook. Just west of the road bridge the line crosses a further steel bridge across the River Wear, which twists and turns as it meanders east from its tributary. This view is looking from the road bridge, along the overgrown track, to the river bridge seen beyond the tree canopy. See image 74634 for the view in the opposite direction.
