Sleeper Stones, Newton Aycliffe (Newton Aycliffe)

Sandstone Sleepers used for the Stockton & Darlington Railway dating circa 1830 A.D. Each block is 2ft2 and weighs roughly 100kg. These are very likely to have been moved between 1896 - 1914 for a North Eastern Rail track. It is uncertain what the purpose of this track was. These are where the stones sit now (1).

This site was added to the Local List on 13th November 2023.
