New houses facing the Desmesnes
This area is a warren of new housing developments. This is the back of a group of houses looking very neat and in character, facing out onto the big open space of Barnard Castle Desmesnes, just north of the River Tees. The properties are only let down by their remarkably scruffy back gates !

Old properties in Thorngate
Eighteenth century cottages in Thorngate. Number 21 [with three small windows on the second storey] is described as a 'weaver's cottage', no doubt the triple windows once giving light into weaving rooms.

Former Broadgates Methodist Chapel, West View, Barnard Castle
Grade II Listed former Methodist Chapel dated 1764 on the west gable - this is the east gable. The blue plaque states that "This building, originally known as Broadgates Chapel, was the first Methodist Chapel to be built in Barnard Castle. Much of the labour in erecting it was undertaken by the men and women of the congregation. John Wesley preached in the opening service." There is more on the plaque but it is difficult to make out from the photograph on the Historic England website. https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1282876. The sign over the arch says Broadgates, which is a walkway leading across to the Bank. The building is now apartments.

Broadgates
This tiny ginnel, entered off The Bank at NZ05011622 is called Broadgates and leads under an arched tunnel below the house seen here. There are a whole series of parallel little paths, much used by locals, but not shown on any street maps I've seen, so they are pleasantly free from tourists.
