Horses on the old wagonway
This field is beside the road leading from Grange Villa to West Pelton. These are two former mining villages and on the left here, can be seen the line of a former wagonway. This was a mineral line carrying coal running down from East Stanley. The two nearest horses are standing at the point where it crossed the road.

View along Stone Row
This street forms the western edge of the ex-mining village of Grange Villa. It is also the original street in the village, dating from the late C19. As the name states, these are stone built miners cottages. The rest of the village, dating from the Edwardian era at the start of the C20, is brick built. This terrace is notable for all the tidy front gardens too.
