Ushaw Moor Community – Local Wildlife Nature

January 29, 2011 Leave a comment

 

 

This line was opened in 1858 and carried coal out of the valley for nearly a hundred years. Now it is a pleasant walk, which follows the River Deerness through a wooded and pastoral landscape.

From Broompark follow the Deerness Valley Walk sign. The track runs high above the river valley and passes through arable and grazing land. This area has had restricted access due to the railway and steep valley slopes and much of it has escaped intensive improvement. Consequently, a number of original landscape features and herb rich meadows remain.

The railway path and adjacent land provides a corridor from fells near Hedleyhope in the west to Durham City and the River Wear. Kingfishers and herons use the river and green woodpeckers, finches, warblers, jays and many other common woodland birds are abundant. Butterflies include meadow brown, common blue and large skipper.

William Finley – Northern League Ushaw Moor

January 27, 2011 Leave a comment

“Charlie and I go back a lot of years and I know he’s keen to see the Sports Club promote its sections’ activities. He’s calling on professional friendships from various old contacts of his to get this stand up and we wanted to do our bit.

“We’re absolutely delighted the club have agreed to name the stand in memory of my father, who passed away in 1995. As a footballer himself, he’d be very proud.”

William Finley played for various clubs at Northern League level in the 1940’s and 50’s, including Black Hall, Lanchester, Bishop, Ushaw Moor, Brandon and Esh Winning Albion, winning 19 trophies.

Martin Walker said: “Getting the stand up before the March 31 deadline will help to relieve a major burden for the football club and will enable us to focus on trying to make sure we finish in the top three of the second division.”

Cockhouse Lane – Lost Jewellery

January 25, 2011 1 comment

Posted on behalf of Ken Cruickshank kjc671@msn.com

At the beginning of 2011 I found 2 bracelets in the fields at the rear of Cockhouse Lane. One is quite expensive but neither have been reported lost or stolen to the Police. If anyone reading this has any idea who they belong to then please get in touch with me.
