Did you know that in Google Maps you can not only see a street map, satellite image and terrain of Shotley Bridge but also photographs of where you live in Street View.

Directory distributed

February 20, 2010

2400 households in Shotley Bridge and Benfieldside should receive a copy of the Shotley Bridge Directory through their letterboxes over the next two weeks.

The Directory, which was published by the Trust last December, provides information on community facilities, clubs and groups in the village and at Snods Edge. It also includes a map of the area together with information about the history of the village and the Village Trust.

If you do not receive a copy, pick up one from local businesses or Consett library. Alternatively you can download it here.

Shotley Bridge Directory

January 7, 2010

The funding application to Durham county Council’s ‘Grants for Groups’ for the new leaflet was successful and the Shotley Bridge Directory was published last month. The full grant of £1200, administered by the Derwentside CVS & Volunteer Bureaux, has paid for the design and printing. It is intended to use the advertising revenue from local businesses to produce an updated reprint for next year.

The Directory provides information on community facilities, clubs and groups in the village and at Snods Edge.  It also includes a map of the area together with information about the history of the village and the Village Trust.

Village Directory

November 23, 2009

Work has started on designing the first Shotley Bridge Directory, providing information on community facilities, clubs and groups in the village and at Snods Edge.  A grant application has been made and this, together with advertisements from local businesses, should pay for 10,000 copies to be printed in time for distribution at the Victorian Christmas Weekend.

Residents will also receive a copy through their letterboxes, which will be delivered by volunteers.  The funding will also cover an updated reprint in December next year.

The publication will also include information about the history of the village and the Village Trust.
