Moorside Cemetery
Moorside Cemetery is a recent development, opened in August 2009; there are few graves there presently (February 2015). Moorside is close to Consett in County Durham and perhaps the design of the gates reflects the steel-making history of that town.

Looking north along the old drove road
Now just a footpath but the old stone walls on the right show it was once an important route north to Scotland. Much of it is now the A68, but this section was bypassed by the later road.
