Hi Stan,
Have you been trespassing south into Co. Durham? That looks like the abandoned mine workings near Rookhope. Its a fine record of the buildings even if it does look a bit on the over sharp side, or perhaps that's due to the strong lighting.

Thanks for the comments Andy and David. It was a very bright day which didn't help and I think it's over sharpened (0.9) I don't usually go over 0.7. I think we carried on to the "Chinese" fish shop in Stanhope after leaving here so a very good end to the day

A great find... just my sort of place.
Best wishes,
