Found this road years back but couldn't be sure which it was till yesterdays run out. Running 11 miles from Eggleston to Stanhope the B6278 google map Its high with some sweeping bends and terrific views!

You can make a great round trip including this road by going Eggleston to Stanhope B6278 then Stanhope to Alston the A689 lastly Alston to Middleton-in-Teesdale B6277. 53 miles Google map

Good cafe at St Johns Chapel, 'The Chatterbox' Google map Tripadvisor
 
One of my absolute favourite roads :):)

If I'm going north I always make a point of going that way and putting a big smile on my face. Shouldn't be advertising it too much though - we don't want any traffic on there, do we?? :D

To my shame I just found the section from Stanhope up to Allendale last year when at work, drove it down and back twice in a van just for the fun of it
