October 2016 Archaeo-Environment for Durham County Council, Darlington Borough Council and Stockton Council. The 1825 Stockton & Darlington Railway: Historic Environment Audit: West Auckland to Shildon. Introduction This report is one of a series covering the length of the 1825 Stockton & Darlington Railway. It results from a programme of fieldwork and desk based research carried out between October 2015 and March 2016 by Archaeo-Environment and local community groups, in particular the Friends of the 1825 S&DR. This appendix covers the second 5.1km (3.17 miles) stretch between the Gaunless Accommodation Bridge at West Auckland and Shildon (figure 1). It outlines what survives and what has been lost starting at the north and heading south east to Shildon. It outlines the gaps in our knowledge requiring further research and the major management issues needing action. It highlights opportunities for improved access to the line and for improved conservation, management and interpretation so that the S&DR is a visitor destination of national and international importance. © Crown copyright 2016.

This road joins the A1150 and ultimately the A66 east towards Teesside. To the west Haughton Green becomes Salters Lane South past St Andrew’s Church.
