Dist:0.4km<br/>According to the 1:50000 map the Roman Fort is beneath these houses but the 1:25000 put it further north. Leastways it was raining heavily so I didn't have much enthusiasm to look. I will return!

Dist:0.5km<br/>Stone-washed cottages in pastel colours in a County Durham street village with a green. The first house is called "Bath House", probably reflecting the Roman fort ruins which lie behind these cottages. The village also sits on Dere Street, the old Roman road which switchbacks north over the hills to the Tyne.
