Description: Black Middens Bastle Keys to the Past Web Site: This group of buildings at Black Middens includes a well-preserved 16th century bastle, an 18th century farmhouse, traces of a second bastle and a group of enclosures and fields Only the roof is missing from the first bastle and has thick stone walls. The original 16h century doors were replaced in the 18th century. At the same time a new farmhouse was built south-east of the bastle. Little remains of this later farmhouse, but the bastle beneath it survived due to its use as a cattle shed. http://www.keystothepast.info/durhamcc/K2P.nsf/K2PDetail?readform&PRN=N6990
