A Scheduled Monument in Winlaton and High Spen, Gateshead

Water intake weir on River Derwent

Uploader's Comments

There's not much of the ironworks to see here.This is the water supply, which flowed along a stone-walled channel and down a stone-stepped weir. Theses two features are still there, but badly overgrown. Best seen in winter.
