Frosterley Village Web Site
Frosterley is situated in Weardale, an area in the north pennines of England which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has also been recently granted Geopark status on account of its geological importance. Weardale is a working dale yet centuries of farming, mining, quarrying and manufacturing industry, from the Romans onwards whilst leaving their mark have not marred the overall natural beauty of the area. It makes an excellent base for visiting two UNESCO world heritage sites, Hadrians Wall and Durham Cathedral. |
Ideal holiday location and news about the Weardale Railway
Frosterley is only 20 miles from Durham and 26 miles from Newcastle. centrally situated to visit the many visitor attractions in Weardale and nearby. The Village has two pubs, the Frosterley Inn, (Front Street) and The Black Bull Inn (Turn off Front Street on to the Road for Middleton in Teesdale).
This summer the Weardale Railway will re-open part of the Heritage Line, an extension of the world famous Stockton to Darlington Railway. Trains will pass again through Frosterley between Wolsingham and Stanhope. In the future, it is hoped to eventually re-establish a full passenger service between Weardale and a main rail station. There are good bus links to the village.
