This public bridleway links Holywell Village with a number of other bridleways and footpaths stretching out across an area that was once a hive of coal mining activity, riddled with a network of waggonways. It also lies on the route of the 'Tyne & Wear Heritage Way', an 80 mile route taking in the rich historic and industrial heritage of the area. The way is broken down into nine convenient sections that can be walked at any time, and in any order.
