Wesley church - Newgate Street

Ok, as much as I will be doing on the Wesley church.



As this church is right by the track and a big feature in Bishop Auckland so it has it's own texture page. It is a little ropey in parts and I have just noticed I have missed a chimney off it. As I don't live in Bishop and it is a 3 hour drive away I am only working off a small number of images, this texture was made from 3 photos and there were many hours of photoshop trickery to get it all squared up.
Anyway enough is enough and time to move on.

I'm back!

Hi,
Off up north this weekend to ride the 141 to Stanhope from Bishop Auckland.
Ok not a classic DMU (did I really just say that?) but still pleased the line is now open.

Last time I did that I think was in 1989. I then walked the 10 mile to Burnhope Reservoir ( A place I use to go fishing with my dad)

First time the little siddler has been north and the rest of the clan are keen to meet the little fella.

Look forward to making more progress on this route very soon.
