Ewehurst Wood, County Durham

Ruins in Dipton Woods

Uploader's Comments

There are many ruined buildings and other remains in these woods, all from the intensive coal mining which was carried on here in the eighteenth and nineteenth centurys. This house probably stood next to a waggonway and served it in some way or other.
