Roundabout on new road
The new road joins the Washington Highway to Chester Road. It was completed in 2004 but the name or designation is unknown to me. A new housing estate is in the background.

Boundary House, Shiney Row
This large old house is located on Chester Road on the east side of the village. It obviously gives its name to the modern district of Boundary Houses. I don't know its age but it is shown on the Old Series Ordnance Survey map of 1862, and looks to be possibly late 18th century.

South East Entrance to the Lambton Estate
The path to these gates splits off from the bridle path running through (what is left of) Biddick Woods on the border of the Lambton Estate. These gates lead to Biddick Hall (the home of the Earl of Durham) on his estate, although, like the north gate, they are not in use.

Little used southern entrance to Biddick Hall
Biddick Hall is on the Lambton Estate and is the home of the Lambton family. This entrance leads to an avenue of trees in front of the house suggesting it was a more important and regularly used gateway in past times.

Entrance to Biddick Hall
A notice makes it clear to Weardale Way walkers, and any other pedestrian for that matter - this is not the direction of travel, and keep to the main track.
