Bridleway north of Bog Wood
Bridleway north of Bog Wood
A new bridleway was created in 2009 along the north side of Bog Wood through which runs Barlow Burn. This becomes Blaydon Burn, at the hamlet of the same name, which joins the River Tyne at Blaydon. The bridleway runs from Longridge Road along the boundary of the former Burnhills landfill site and out onto Barlow Lane, linking Blaydon Burn and the Keelman’s way to the countryside west of Gateshead.

The bridleway improves access to the Barlow Burn East SNCI (Site of Nature Conservation Importance) which has a variety of habitats including mature wet woodland, wet grassland, fen/swamp and semi natural ancient woodland. The Water Shrew lives locally and Red Kites often roost nearby.
