Byway to Eltringham
The area of woodland and scrub just before the junction with the footpath that leads south to the Prudhoe road was named 'Pit Houses' on 1865 and 1899 OS maps and was probably an area of housing for colliery workers http://www.keystothepast.info/article/10339/Site-Details?PRN=N10171 Later maps up until 1960 show a Mission Room building in the same location. Coldkettle Dene starts below the track to the right with Coldkettle Well shown on early maps.
