Back roads are always quiet

Rookhope is really interesting- but slowly dying. The arch is almost emblematic of that.

This is a scenic open road over moorland and reaches an impressive elevation of 511m on Middleton Common. It’s an undulating road but offers fabulous views in all directions. It crosses the border between Teasdale and Weardale.

The Lord Crewe Arms is a medieval hotel dating back from 1165. It contains hidden stairways and stone flagged floors as it was used as a hiding hole by monks of nearby Blanchland Abbey. It's named after Lord Crewe, the Bishop of Durham and is said to be haunted by the ghost of his sister, Dorothy Foster. It's now both a pub and hotel, offering a historical experience in a remote setting.

This is a long moorland road that links Stanhope in Weardale to Eggleston in Teesdale. It's about 17km and reaches a high point of 511m on Middleton Common. It's quite a hilly road with the steepest section coming out of Stanhope if traveling from north to south.
