Cycleway alongside Queen's Road, Blackhill
There is a very broad verge on the east side of Queens Road which embraces the old trackbed of the Derwent Valley Railway. Constructed in 1867 and running from Swalwell on the River Tyne up to Consett, the line finally closed in 1963. The footway on the line of the old railway has been converted into a cycleway and forms part of National Cycle Network route 14 which follows a zigzag course from South Shields via Gateshead, Consett, Durham, Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees to finish at Darlington.
