Really nice country park so many little trails and walks. Feels a bit like being in the jungle in some bits. There’s a pond and benches and information about the area.

Nice little place to watch the birds on the feeding stations. Apparently they have free events you can join. Some benches nearby to sit and take a break.

Construction of the bridge finally began on July 26, 1972. The planning of the construction was carried out by Freeman Fox & Partners (now called Hyder Consulting). The superstructure was carried out by a joint venture led by Sir William Arrol & Co., at the time part of Northern Engineering Industries plc. The other partners were Cleveland Bridge & Engineering Co., John Thompson Ltd. and Dorman Long. The bridge was opened to traffic on June 24, 1981 after nine years of construction and closed on July 17, 1981 Elizabeth II ceremonially inaugurated.
