Hobson

England

Hobson lies in County Durham's former mining heartland, reached via the A692 from Newcastle about 15 kilometres southwest. Long-distance visitors use the A1(M) before connecting through Chester-le-Street and the A693. The area has over 300 EV charging points regionally. The nearby Tanfield Railway operates heritage steam services on track sections dating to 1725, making it the world's oldest existing railway.
