LOCATION Hemingford lodge is set on a superb peaceful plot, tucked way up a short access lane off Queens Road, the attractive village of Shotley Bridge, close-by is built on the banks of the River Derwent and has a rich history, once being the very heart of Britains sword making industry. Shotley was probably chosen because of rich iron deposits and the fast flowing waters of the River Derwent. In fact Dere Went means river where oaks grew. The woodland and beautiful countryside is one reason why Shotley Bridge has become such a popular place to live. Another reason is the proximity to Newcastle upon Tyne and Durham City. Newcastle is 13 miles (Newcastle Airport 13 miles), Durham 12 miles and there is excellent access to the A1 and the south via the A68 which passes a few miles south west of the village.

After 500 yards turn right onto Benfieldside Road and take the first left turn onto Woodlands Road. Follow this road up the hill and past the hospital on the left hand side, turn left into 69-71 Queens Road and Hemingford Lodge is the last house on the left hand side. From Durham take the A691 out of Durham City and follow the road all the way into the centre of Shotley Bridge. When you reach the centre of the village turn right onto Snows Green Road. After 500 yards turn right onto Benfieldside Road and take the first left turn onto Woodlands Road. Follow this road up the hill and past the hospital on the left hand side, turn left into 69-71 Queens Road and Hemingford Lodge is the last house on the left hand side.
