When the first Ordnance Survey Six-inch map of the area was published in 1865 (surveyed 1858) this farm was in existence although, at that time, East Holywell Colliery and the small settlement of East Holywell stood immediately to the south. Both the settlement and the colliery have long since disappeared. For a selection of detailed free to download walking routes in the area visit www.northtynesidewalks.co.uk
