Bottom of Stone Row, Grange Villa
This is the south end of the street, where it joins Pelton Lane, the main street through the village. Stone Row was the first street to be built here, for the miners of West Pelton Colliery in the fourth quarter of the C19. In the early years of the C20, it was joined by further rows of miners houses, these being brick built.

Village sign, Grange Villa
This wooden carving is at the roadside on the southwest corner of the village. It has carvings of the typical things which would be going on in the allotments behind here, such as pigeons, rabbits, vegetables etc. Unfortunately, the hedge has rather overgrown it at the moment.

Grange Villa Working Men's Club
On Pelton Lane, the village main street. The club was once at the heart of all the mining villages in Co Durham, but many have shared the fate of village pubs and closed. Grange Villa's, happily, seems to be surviving.

Track into Grange Villa
Behind the photographer, the track leads to farm buildings at Twizell Dykes. The area is now open countryside, but not so long ago was busy with coal mine workings and waste tips.
