C2C at Consett
The Consett and Sunderland path (part of the famous C2C cycle route, National Cycle Network route 7) for the most part follows the line of the old railway. But here it diverges from the trackbed for about 1 km and runs along this line of trees at the edge of the Crook Hall playing fields. This was the first length of the path to be laid (in 1987). The Consett By-pass (A692), on the Castleside to Chestert-le-Street road runs immediately to the left.

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.

Delves Lane Roundabout
Delves Lane originally bridged the Birtley, Annfield Plain and Consett railway here. The A692 Consett By-pass follows the course of the railway and Consett Station lay between the roundabout and the green footbridge in the background

The Grey Horse, Consett
This little pub is quite a favourite with cyclists on the C2C route nearby. Groups can often be seen at the tables outside on Summer afternoons. Also, it brews its own beer, which may add to the attraction.

Virtually all the services from here are operated by Go North East. There was a major modernisation of the local fleet in 2019, with new double deck buses, one of which is shown in the centre here.
