This minor road climbs from the small settlement at Baybridge, to the slightly larger hamlet of Hunstanworth; here it's seen at its junction with the access road for High Garden House.

Dist:0.5km<br/>A good farm road leads from Baybridge up to the old hunting lodge at Riddlehamhope, but only carries the status of public footpath. The landowners seem pretty anti its use by cyclists, thereby severing a good link for off-road cyclists between the Derwent valley and the Devil's Water.

Dist:0.5km<br/>So where exactly am I??? The following information supplied by Keith Cunningham:- The picture shows the boundary between County Durham and Northumberland. The Derwent used to meander around the area and the Ordnance Survey chose this point as the Border when they produced their first map in about 1860. Since then the river has changed its course and a bridge has been built. Hence "Baybridge".
