Hares Buildings, CHESTER LE STREET, DH2 2SY

For whatever reason, this building, now used as a shop, was built in a wedge shape, rather than the norm, with square corners.

A roadside sandwich shop in the old mining village of Pelton Lane Ends.

This is the now deserted premises of a former Peugeot dealer in the rural village of Newfield. I suspect the business has moved to greener pastures.

Viewed from Newfield Front Street. Newfield is a late 19th century mining village, which was probably when the pub was built.

A little terraced row in Pelton Lane Ends, a detached part of Pelton on the west side. It dates from the later part of the C19, and occupies a rather strange irregular site, as can be seen from the angle of the corner.

In the village of Pelton Road Ends. It stands on Pelton Lane, at the junction with Newfild Road. Newfield village dates from the second half of the C19, as a pit village. The pub was built then also. The area around the pub is Pelton Lane Ends, another mining community, built at end of the C19 and the early C20. The building still has features from earlier times, for instance the arched opening in the outbuilding on the right, which was probably where the dray waggons went into the yard.

This is Newfield Front Street, the main road through the village. View is to the junction with Pelton Road.

This recently constructed play park has its entrance in Industrial Street. In the background, on the right, is part of Pelton Roseberry Primary School.
