Path through the fields west of Eden Hill
This footpath and farm track runs north from Twizell Lane near the site of the former Jingling Gates pub (now demolished) and crosses the track of the old railway at the top of the picture here. The line of the trackway can be clearly made out, along the top of the embankment. It ceased operating in 1946.

Gateway onto the old line near Eden Hill
This old railway ran across the fields west of West Pelton to Stanley and was used for colliery traffic. It ceased operations in 1946 and was lifted in 1952, but the route can still be traced in parts, such as here. The public path crosses it here, at the site of an old farm called High Twizell. This is shown on old O S maps of the 1920's and earlier but must have been abandoned and cleared years ago.

View west from High Twizell
This site, in the fields west of West Pelton, was once the site of High Twizell farm. It must have disappeared some time in the second half of the 20th century. There is a nice view from here over the countryside towards South Stanley and Craghead.
