At the top of Toys Hill was sited a very grand house built in 1906 for Lord and Lady Weardale and used by them as their summer home. It had commanding views but sadly fell into neglect and was bequeathed to the National Trust and the land flattened. There are a number of footpaths around this spot. Unfortunately the beautiful views are mainly hidden due to the trees and vegetation.
