Wife’s Notes...
Notes:
In 1856 (14) the directory entries for Belmont are given under Durham City, but by 1879 (15) Belmont with Broomside, Carr Ville and Gilesgate Moor had its own list of 68 entries, of which 13 were private residents, and18 were licensed premises [including the appropriately named George & Dragon at Dragon Ville!]. By 1910 (16) Belmont had its own section with 7 private residents and 25 commercial directory entries, none of which related to coal mining, although one was the Grange Iron Works, and 5 were pubs!

The surrounding colliery villages, which grew up at about the same time, soon had their own nonconformist chapels. In 1856 (17), 'Carville' had a fine Primitive Methodist Chapel which had been built in 1839. Grange Chapel, a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel at Broomside, was a small plain stone building built first in 1835, and rebuilt in 1840 to seat 250. Broomside was inhabited mainly by pitmen employed by the Broomside Coal Company and the workpeople of the Grange Iron Company. Here there was also a National School, with another, the Marquess of Londonderry's School, at Dragon Ville (18). By 1910 (19), Broomside was still home to workers at the Grange Iron Company. At Carr Ville there was a small red-brick Wesleyan Chapel built in 1881, also a Primitive Methodist Chapel built in 1869 which could seat 250.
