If you're planning on travelling on the A689rd, through the Durham Dales towards Alston/ Hartside then please be aware once you reach the County boundary at Killhope Cross and travel downhill into Cumbria and the village of Nenthead. 

When you get to the bottom of the long descent and reach the Miners Arms on your right, you are travelling around a left hand bend as as you can see from the photo’s above the road surface has broken up and there are large area’s of tarmac missing. Please slow down and take your time as you negotiate this section of road.
