Auckland Way Railway Path At New Coundon notice the Old Station House which, as its name suggests, was once Coundon Station. Today the roar of engines has been replaced by birdsong. The route here passes by a golf course and pasture fields grazed with sheep, horses and cows. Speckled wood The scrub and hedgerow which line the route are ideal feeding and nesting places for birds. There are a large variety of birds along the Auckland Walk including tree sparrow, bullfinch and song thrush. We have even had a sighting of a redstart, with its distinctive orange tail feathers. During the winter, look out for the redwing, a migrant from Scandinavia. They can often be seen feasting on the berries. Another notable species to look out for is the speckled wood butterfly which flies between April and October. Bullfinch Deer There are a variety of flowering plants along the route including herb robert, ox-eye daisy and the delicate field scabious. The wetland area near Bishops Close reflects the vibrant yellow blooms of marsh marigold each spring and yellow flag between May and July. To the west there are extensive views across the Wear Valley towards the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The route passes near Binchester Roman Fort and Redstart Auckland Park. Accessibility Statement Fly agaric Gorse This linear walk is gently undulating with several steep gradients where bridges once stood (please refer to the route profile). Path surfaces vary from tarmac, to unsealed hard surfaces with some large stones. Small sections of the path suffer from erosion and may have ruts and large stones in them. Broom The path width is generally two metres, however the sections near Binchester and between Bishops Close and Whitworth Lane narrows to one metre in places. Barn Owl There are a number of seats along the route. back Photographs: www.northeast wildlife.co.uk, S Priestley, T Coult Auckland Way Railway Path ft 800 400 I I I I I 0 miles 1 2 3 4 Bracks Farm Coundon Station Binchester Byers Green Whitworth Road Rosa St NZ 222 291 NZ 227 301 NZ 227 323 NZ 227 329 NZ 245 337 NZ 253 337 Parking Parking Parking zoom in Map 4 zoom in Map 3 zoom in Map 2 zoom Map 1 in back © Crown Copyright and database right 2011.

    CONTAINS PULLOUTS Spatial Adjustments in the Teesside Economy, 1851-81. I. Bullock. NEWCASTLE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY ---------------------------- 087 12198 3 ---------------------------- A Thesis Submitted to the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of PhD, Department of Geography 1970a ABSTRACT. This study is concerned with spatial change in a reg, - ional economy during a period of industrialization and rapid growth. It focuses on two main issues : the spatial pattl-rn of economic growth, and the locational adjustments induced and required by that process in individual sectors of the economy. Conceptually, therefore, the thesis belongs to the category of economic development studies, but it also makes an empirical contribution to knowledge of Teesside in a cru- cial period of the regionts history. In the first place, it was deemed necessary to estab- lish that economic growth did occur on Teesside between 1851 and 1881. To that end, use was made of a number of indirect indices of economic performance. These included population change, net migration, urbanization and changes in the empl. oyment structure of the region. It was found that these indicators provided evidence of economic growth, and evide- nce that growth was concentrated in and around existing urban centres and in those rural areas which had substantial mineral resources. To facilitate the examination of locational change in individual sectors of the economy - in mining, agriculture, manufacturing and the tertiary industries -, the actual spa- tial patterns were compared with theoretical models based on the several branches of location theory. In general, the models proved to be useful tools for furthering understand- ing of the patterns of economic activity and for predicting the types of change likely to be experienced during industr- ial revolution.

Colly. each Mr. Bowes M.P. is said to be at the head of this Co. I had a meeting with Messrs. Donkin Phillipson, Ins. Dunn & Ins.

Hetton Colly falling into the hands of this Joint Stock Co. would ren- der it impossible for the best Collieries on the Wear to form a district Regulation amongst themselves, in the event of the general Regulation being broken up, and that it was, therefore, advisable, if possible to prevent this Sale being completed. I was [devised] to write I. Gregson to ask him if the agreement for the Sale 1836 2. was definitively concluded, and if not to inquire, if he could delay it a Week as in that case a proposition would be submitted to the N. Hetton Co. by which they would obtain their object, and the mischief which would result to the trade from the Colliery Falling into the hands of this Joint Stock Co. wd. Be averted. It was proposed in the event of the Colliery still being to be had, that the other [b]est Collieries, Should purchase it amongst them according to their re- spective Bases.

  • Spennymoor Area Action Partnership Action Area
    Spennymoor Area Action Partnership Area Annual Review 2013/14 Spennymoor AAP – Annual Review 2013/14 Foreword from Alan Smith, Outgoing Spennymoor AAP Chair I would like to thank everyone associated with the Spennymoor Area Action Partnership for contributing to another excellent year in moving forward and trying to make a real difference in the AAP area. Having been given a clear steer on the need to continue with the key priorities of Children & Young People and Employment and Job Prospects, there has been a real drive and energy to succeed. The major occasion of our year, held in November, was the ‘Your Money, Your Area, Your Views’ event. The event provided the opportunity for members of our communities to vote on projects they wanted to receive funding, to vote on the AAP priorities for the 2014/15 financial year and to have their say on the future budget for Durham County Council (DCC). Overall the event was a great success with over 900 people attending on the day. The event also showed how committed the people of our area are to supporting and improving the community they live and work in. Taking community cohesion one step further, it was great to see that the community engagement processes that have been put in place by DCC (AAPs being pivotal in this) were a key element of the LGC Council of The Year award given to DCC recently. A major role in DCC achieving this accolade was a full day of assessment by an independent panel and for me it was a real boost that our partnership was selected to be part of this judging day.
