View east from Hilltop
This spot at the far east end of Stanley is well named. At about 700 feet, it gives superb views of the surrounding area. Picture taken by the side of the main road, the A693.

Junction on the A693
To No Place (Cooperative Villas).
The origins of the village's unusual name are uncertain; however, theories include a shortening of "North Place", "Near Place" or "Nigh Place".
Derwentside Council tried to change the name of the village to Co-operative Villas in 1983; however, they met with strong protests from local residents at the removal of all signs pointing to No Place. Today the signs say both No Place and (at the request of some residents) Co-operative Villas.

View east from Park Nook
West of Beamish. The fields are very clarty (to use a good old Northeast expression) after a very wet few months. The village of No Place can be seen in the centre. Of uncertain origin, the peculiar name is obviously popular with the villagers, who resisted a council attempt to change it in the sixties.
