Wapping Bridge
Carries the A183 over the disused Leamside Railway - passed by on the Weardale Way.
Closed to all traffic by 1990, it ran from Tursdale Junction to the Durham Coast Line at Pelaw Junction.
There are discussions afoot, to a possible re-opening. Gravel stones on the trackbed appear to be in place.

Disused railway trackbed at Bournmoor
The former Leamside route was the original main line from Darlington - Newcastle before being relegated to a secondary route when the main line took the new route via Durham and Team Valley in 1872. By the 1980s the route was little used except when work on the main line required diversions, finally closing in 1991. Though the track is lifted the line retains a ‘mothballed’ status so has not been severed or built on, and is frequently proposed for reopening either as a heavy rail route or part of the Tyne and Wear Metro.
