Besides the Grey Horse, there is another pub half off the photo to the right. The Church of All Saints was originally erected in 1746. The old village area is quite upmarket, but close by is a large housing estate originally constructed in the 1920s/1930s for coal miners. More info: http://www.mymarras.co.uk/pages/penshaw.htm
