  • The Way of Learning Route
    !1 JARROW TO DURHAM Route Description Introduction The route is 61 kilometres or 38 miles. It is the most urban of the routes with two thirds of the route on minor roads or paved paths, but it is a route that is full of interest. I have divided the route into 5 sections of between 10 to 17 kms in length." Section 1 Jarrow to South Shields 10 km" Jarrow Leaving St Paul's Church, cross the road at Church Bank, continue along the wide tarmac path opposite (River Don footpath) until you reach mosaic incorporated into tarmac. Do not cross the bridge here, but take the left fork adjacent to river, under Straker Street (A185) and across to a point where the metro line crosses A19. Turn left, under the metro line bridge and left again, then first right following River Don footpath, under A19 - WATCH YOUR HEAD! Continue on the paved path to Jarrow Cemetery. Cross Cemetery Road and continue walking along the River Don footpath, soon crossing from the west to the east side of the river then back again to the west side at the next bridge. Stay on this side of the river until you reach Roman Road." The Robin Hood Pub is a few metres further on to your left, but you cross over Roman Road to pass under Leam Lane bridge (the A194). Hedworth Lane bends to the left, but you take the tarmac path !2 which continues by the river, until it comes out again at Hedworth Lane. Turn right and when you reach the top of the hill cross the road and bear left to Thorntree Walk with the Greyhound Inn nearby to your right.
