Where is the most remote location in Sunderland?



There's a few lads live in the trees up the footpath running between Doxy International and oak tree farm/David Lloyd gym. Sometimes bump into them whilst walking me dog early on in a morning. Had a quick look round their camp once they'd gone on their daily whatevery and they've got a tent sheet up and a fire going and that. Don't seem to be causing much bother so have just left them be but if owt starts going missing I know where to call in first.
 
Used to get bored on my dinner at work at Doxy so would go walking about. Mainly in the woods in the surrounding areas. Also lived in Moorside at the time so was useful if I wanted a running route etc.

There’s a few crevices around that area where there are cans piled high, remnants of bonfires, makeshift seats made from fallen trees etc. A few times I happened upon a group taking what I assumed to be heroin in these places.

Probably the closest I can think of to what you’re describing.

Seems we may have bumped into a few of the same individuals. Like you’ve said, litter aside I don’t think they’re causing much bother.

You will have been in my year.
 
The fields behind Farra school that stretch over to gilley law and silksworth lane. Used to have various dens on the old railway line and in the hedges running across the fields. Mind I'm going back a few years so it's likely all changed by now.
Believe it or not, the younguns call it Farra Beach these days. Fuck knows why, but there you go. 😊
