Glad to see precious countryside being conserved - particularly for future generatiins. The industrial (mostly coal mining and associated activities) legacy has gone, but can be appreciated at places like Beamish Museum and the Tanfield Railway. This is probably the first time in 200 - 300 years that this part of North West Durham is able to re-create the rural landscape that it ince was. Only snag now is the ever increasing air and noise pollution from an ever increasing number of road vehicles.
