'The Lanchester Valley Railway Path is part of an extensive network of Railway Paths which are fantastic for cyclists, walkers and horse-riders. The Lanchester Valley railway opened in 1862 and was built to carry iron ore to Consett steelworks and coal from Langley Park; it closed in 1965.' https://www.thisisdurham.com/things-to-do/lanchester-valley-railway-path-walking-and-cycling-route-p666841
