Cox Green Tyne and Wear Map

About Cox Green

Cox Green rests in a gentle hollow, a scatter of houses and fields touched by the wide Sunderland sky. It lies 2.9 km east-south-east of Washington (from Washington: bearing 107°T, OS grid NZ 326 552), and is situated north-north-east of Penshaw village. The air here, often carrying a faint dampness from the North Sea's breath, seems to hold the memory of coal dust and the quiet industry that once shaped these lands. Open fields, their green hues deepening with the passing clouds, stretch outwards, meeting the horizon with a soft, unbroken line. A sense of patient endurance pervades Cox Green, a quiet strength that has seen it through the changing tides of time, much like the sturdy hedgerows that still mark the old field boundaries. The land itself, a rich loam, remembers the plough and the seed, offering a subtle beauty in its very earth.
