Hackworth Park

Submitted by Geoff Royle
Name Hackworth Park
Distance 0.11 miles from Shildon
Description This footpath which bisects the park lies over a short stretch of the bygone Surtees? Line of the Stockton and Darlington Railway. As the path disappears into the mist, and about to join Main Street, the gradient rises to a challenging 1-in-20. In the past that ascent would have been very hard work for the primitive locomotives and engine-drivers alike.
