Wolsingham 'Stream' Train - 19/03/23

Trip to see and ride on a old Steam Train at Wolsingham, unfortunately it wasn't running so we went for a little walk about the River.
Wolsingham sits at the confluence of the River Wear and Waskerley Beck. It is a small settlement and one of the first market towns in County Durham, potentially deriving its name from the legendary Germanic family the Waelsingas, or from the personal name "Wolfsige". The earliest known record of the town is to be found in Reginald of Durham's Life of Godric where it is stated that the saint lived there for almost two years about 1120 AD with Elric the hermit.
