Barmston Pond
This Site of Nature Conservation Importance is particularly valuable as a refuelling stop for migratory birds and resulted from subsidence in 1970. It began life as a flooded field but the water level is now controlled by a water reservoir fed with clean water from the nearby Nissan plant.

Train line through Usworth
The line, as you can see, is disused - continuing up the line would take you to the train junction east of Pelaw Metro station.

Usworth Railway Station
Well, once upon a time there used to be anyway! The line doesn't even cross the road any more (The Washington Road towards the Nissan factory and Sunderland)! This is looking south to where the station used to be. The line continues down to Penshaw Junction (where Pensaw Park tennis courts and bowling green are) - the northern-bound trains would split between those north to Newcastle and those North-East to Sunderland. The North-Easterly direction is now a good walk which ends up at the relatively new metro station South Hylton, the furthest outpost on the Tyne & Wear Metro system. More information on the station, with photographs before and after closure in 1963, can be found at http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/u/usworth/index.shtml , as well as a history of this line.
