Italian restaurant, Dipton
On Front Street, Hilltop. This used to be a pub and has been put to a good use, many village pubs have been demolished or converted to private dwellings. I think it used to be The Grey Horse.

Start of the Bowes Railway Path
The Bowes Railway was one of the oldest railways in the world, sections of which were constructed by George Stephenson in 1826, and extended from Pontop to the Tyne at Jarrow. In 1842 it was bought and restored by John Bowes and Partners (hence the name). As the coal industry declined, so did use of the railway and the last section of the line was abandoned in the 1970s.
The trackbed is now being converted into a cycle- and foot-path running from Dipton via Burnopfield, Kibblesworth, Birtley and Springwell to Jarrow. It forms Regional Route 11 of the National Cycle Network. At present, much of the path is of poor standard, only suitable for mountain bikes.
The benches give a fine view over the Derwent valley.

The Prince of Wales, Flint Hill
There has been a pub here for over 150 years. The 1861 OS map shows The Bloodhound Inn at this spot. However, I doubt if this is the building from that time, it's more likely to be a late Victorian or Edwardian replacement.
