HORNBY: Following the closure of the Canadian Hornby importer in 2023 we have contacted Hornby numerous times to secure continued supply of Hornby products to supply our Canadian customers. Unfortunately Hornby steadfastly refuse to communicate with us. Regretfully we have concluded that Hornby has no desire to support the Canadian market. As stocks of Hornby products are exhausted we are replacing these products with products from other manufacturers.

 North Bitchburn was a pit village just outside of Bishop Auckland near Howden-Le-Wear near my home of Shildon.

All that remains of the village is a row of terrace houses named Low Row consisting of 20 houses.

There are also estates called Wellgarth Court, North Bitchburn Terrace and Hillside Court.

There is one public house, a Methodist chapel and one shop within the village centre. The public house is named 'The Red Lion'.
