West Rainton is a former County Durham mining village, 8km southeast of Durham city. Take Junction 62 from the A1(M) and follow the A690 west for quick access to Durham or east toward Sunderland. The A19 corridor lies 10km east for longer journeys. Over 250 EV charging points serve the area. The village retains its characteristic red-brick mining terraces alongside newer developments built on the old colliery site.
