Nettlesworth, County Durham Weather
About Nettlesworth, County Durham
Nettlesworth holds the quiet, unassuming character of a place that has long traded the clamour of heavy industry for the stillness of the County Durham hills. It lies 2.7 miles south-south-west of Chester-le-Street (from Chester-le-Street: bearing 204°T, OS grid NZ 256 477), and is situated north-west of Tan Hills village. Beyond the domestic rows, the land rises sharply towards the ridge of West Hill, where the light catches the gorse in a pale, lemon-yellow wash against the grey northern sky. To the west, the modest depression of Howlmire Gill drains the surrounding slopes, carrying rain down through thickets of hawthorn and bramble. Nettlesworth retains a sense of seclusion, far removed from the arterial roads that hum with modern impatience. The residents walk paths where the coal-dust of previous centuries has long since been subsumed by the persistent, encroaching green of the moorland fringe. Even on the clearest days, the wind carries a sharp, bracing quality that reminds one that the North Sea is not so very far away. There is a melancholy beauty in the way the shadows lengthen across these slopes, defining the contours of a landscape that has quietly endured.
