Sedgefield to Bishop Auckland

A very short route in the County of the Prince Bishops, Durham. Starting in the charming small town of Sedgefield, there is a short drive through some local villages before finishing in Bishop Auckland, home of the Bishop of Durham. The majority of the answers are to be found by walking around Sedgefield & Bishop Auckland.  To make the journey between the two towns interesting, there are several other questions to be answered en-route.
