Site of Consett station, 1988
View NE, towards Annfield Plain, Birtley and Newcastle, also Pelaw and Tyne Dock: ex-NER line - passenger from Newcastle, goods from Tyne Dock. The latter included the celebrated heavy iron-ore workings to Consett Steelworks, which were on the Blackhill line, behind and to the west of this view. Consett station was closed to passengers from 23/5/55, but until 1980 this view would be full of railway sidings and the station buildings survived until then at least.

Looking down Front Street in Consett
There is a striking view straight down this road to the North Pennine moors in the far distance. Forty years ago, the view would have been filled by the huge buildings of Consett Steelworks.

Looking up Front Street in Consett
View looking up into the town centre. This view is taken from very near the site of the main office building of the former Consett Steelworks, and shows that the town was, quite literally, built around the steelworks.
