Dist:0.2km<br/>The Border Counties Railway http://www.northumbrian-railways.co.uk/index.php?page=border-counties ran from Hexham to Riccarton Junction on the Waverley Line (also now long closed). It ran through thinly populated and remote countryside but served several small coal mines. This part of the line was opened in 1861 and closed in 1958.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Built in 1899, this church has this quite unique interior, with great use of colour and clean lines to give a very refreshing atmosphere.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Built in 1899/1900, Mr John Hawes being the architect (he later became a Roman Catholic monk) and Bishop Hornby being the Vicar at the time. The site was given by Col. Hornby. The church is in the English traditional style and built of rough faced stone. It seats about 100 and originally cost just over £700.

Dist:0.7km<br/>Presumably former quarrymen's cottages. Shame to see housing going to waste.
