Cottage on Busty Bank
This little cottage is the first house you come across as you come up Busty Bank from Rowlands Gill to the village of Burnopfield. This area of the village is the oldest part, and some of the houses, perhaps including this one, date back to the 18th century. The village was greatly expanded in the 19th century with the increase in coal mining in the area.

This farm in a very picturesque setting just to the north of Burnopfield village, dates to the 18th century. The mill beside the farm was operated by a waterwheel.

Farmyard at Leap Mill
View of the yard at Leap Mill Farm from Busty Bank. The farmer seems to be mucking out the stables. There is a very fine cockerel on the muck heap, if you zoom in. The farm with its attached watermill dates to the 18th century.

Roadside Pant
On the B6314 near the end of its climb into Burnopfield, this fountain (with electric light!) was erected in 1905 in memory of a respected local resident, known especially for his "kindness to dumb animals".

Mown field above Leapmill Burn
Unusual to see a mown field in April, but I think it is related to the re-introduction of red kites locally.
