New Front Street, Tanfield Lea
A bit of a misnomer, as this was the original Front Street in the 19th century. It seems to have been renamed in the post war period after a re-alinement of the roads. The village shops etc were all along here, and still are.

Tanfield Lea Park Rookery
This is in reality a small wood, beside the B6173 which runs through the village. The most notable thing about this picture is something which is missing, and that is the Rooks nests. For as many years as I can remember, and that goes back to the 1950's, there was a large rookery in these trees. The birds would have been already back at their nests at this time in the early spring, but there are none now. Also, the old nests from previous years would have been in the tree tops, which means that the rookery must have been deserted from a year or so before this year. Rook numbers have been falling locally, and this is proof.
