Local Features

The main feature of Clay Bank is the view. White Hill looms behind you, cloaked in forests with a ring of distant cliffs behind the trees, while to the east the northern escarpment of the moors disappeared away to the coast, with Roseberry Topping prominent, while to the north the flat plain of the River Tees recedes into the dim and smoky distance.
