General view
General view of East Castle, known originally as Bantling Castle. The village took its name from the nearby lime kilns which resembled castles, built for the Stanhope and Tyne Railway Co. The name Bantling was supposedly due to the small stature of the miners who came to work at one of the pits in the village. Most of the village was demolished in 1957 leaving only a few railway houses and the lime kilns.
