This house stands at the north end of Longclose Bank (the bottom of the bank). It's right beside the junction with the A694, the main road from Shotley Bridge to Swalwell and Tyneside. This is a former turnpike ,so this could have been a tollhouse , as it's marked as Longclose T P on the 1862 OS map.
