Pemberton Road entering two places!
The location is the old County Durham steel town of Consett. Pemberton road enters the urban area from the south where two separate districts of the town are being approached; the road signs - in blue and yellow - tell that Blackhill is to the right and Bridgehill to the left.

Converted farm buildings at Bridgehill
This large u-shaped courtyard of outbuildings formed part of Bridgehill Farm and is clearly shown on the 1861 First Series Ordnance Survey map. The rest of Bridgehill didn't exist then, the farm was all that was there. The buildings are now all residential.
