Cottage on the green at Cornforth
The green is the old part of Cornforth village and dates back to the Middle Ages. However, most of the existing properties are Victorian, as is this cottage, dated 1851 on the lintel above the door.

The Square and Compass, Cornforth
This pub is on the green in the centre of the village. This is the original part of the village and doesn't seem to have changed since the 1863 Ordnance Survey map. The village dates back to the early middle ages, but the present houses would seem to be 19th or possibly 18th century.

Looking south over the green, Cornforth
This is the old part of Cornforth village, and very nice it looks. The green dates back to the early middle ages, with a first mention in 1180. The present buildings would seem to be no older than the 18th or 19th centuries however. The white building at the far side is the village pub, The Square and Compass.

An old footbridge over Coxhoe beck. A crossing for plant vehicles was created adjacent to the footbridge around 2015 during works replacing the electricity pylons, rendering the footbridge obsolete.

A pale yellow plaque at the centre of the run of bungalows and also at the centre of the image informs that the homes were provided by the Thrislington Colliery in 1925. The village war memorial (Cornforth) is at the left side of the image, largely shadowed.
