Plains Farm Tyne and Wear Map

About Plains Farm

Plains Farm offers a quiet continuation of Sunderland's suburban sprawl. It lies 2.6 km south-west of Sunderland (from Sunderland: bearing 228°T, OS grid NZ 377 548). The land hereabouts gently slopes, a topography that has long dictated its agricultural past, the fields catching the low, northern light like smoothed amber. Once, perhaps, this was a place of open furrows and the slow turning of seasons, the air thick with the scent of turned earth and distant woodsmoke. Now, neat rows of houses, their roof tiles a muted mosaic, stand where fields once stretched, a testament to the relentless march of domesticity. The occasional mature tree, a veteran of an older landscape, still stands sentinel in a garden or park, its branches etched against the often-grey sky.
