The Old Chapel at Croxdale
Ancient religious site near Croxdale Hall. The gate into the enclosure containing the chapel was locked upon our visit.
Originally built in the late 11th or early 12th Centuries as a Chapel of Ease for St. Oswald's in Durham.
The old church was attended as a family chapel, and is now disused.
Passed by on the Weardale Way long distance footpath.

Weardale Way
A 77 mile route following the River Wear from the sea at the Lindisfarne Memorial, Sunderland to the headwaters in the east Pennines, keeping as close as is possible to the river. It visits Lumley Castle, Durham (where the Castle and Cathedral forms a World Heritage Site), Bishop Auckland and Stanhope. After Stanhope the Way makes a northward loop to Rookhope to take in part of a tributary, Rookhope Burn.
