63.2 Miles. Now at Carrsides Farm CL at Ferryhill.

This was a coal washing plant for local mines around Gilsland.

Other than being a nice Summers day for a change it was a pretty uneventful sort of day. Other than an accident at a ‘T’ junction on a perfectly straight stretch of road, where one car was sitting in the holding bay waiting to turn right and the other car finished up in the hedgerow 10 feet off the road. The car in the holding bay had extensive front end damage but the other car was barely visible. What happened and how, beats me!
