Cemetery near to Dipton
The cemetery, to the south of Dipton, has a rather neglected look yet the grass is clearly tended and has been cut recently. Pottery memorials of the type prominent in the image are quite common in County Durham and were presumably cast from a mould, so much cheaper to manufacture than stone monuments. The heart shaped plate carries the inscription which would be have been cast at the time of manufacture rather than cut afterwards.

View south up the bank past Pontop Pike Lane End farm on the right. This lane was one of those established on the former Lanchester Common after the Enclosure Act of 1773 and is supposed to be one of the best preserved in original configuration.

Fondly Set farmhouse
On the lane of that name in Dipton. The road is however more commonly known as The Avenue, because of the line of Beech trees down it.
