Oxhill, County Durham
Oxhill is a small village in County Durham, in England. It is located to the west of Stanley, on the bottom of the hill which leads up to New Kyo and Annfield Plain to it's east. Down the hill to the north are the C2C cycle path, East Kyo and Harperley. Oxhill contains very little: a few households, a pub called The Ox (frequented by locals and occasional cyclists from the neaby C2C cycle path taking lunch - the pub used to be known for weekend live music as well as food) and the main nursery school for the Stanley area. Opposite the ''Ox Inn'' to the south west is the former ''Oxhill Chapel''. This has now been converted to a private house. Oxhill used to be the site of a major level crossing, allowing access from the former nearby Stanhope and Tyne Railway line (this is now the basis of the eastern section of the ''C2C'' cycle path) to a shunting yard adjacent to nearby South Moor, where coal was loaded for transport to the River Tyne for export. A small pond calle ...

Mount Toby
Mount Toby, , is the highest summit of a sprawling collection of mostly wooded hills and knolls that rise from a distinct plateau-like upland in the towns of Sunderland and Leverett, Massachusetts, just east of the Connecticut River. This mountain mass, part of the Metacomet Ridge geology, is oval shaped and roughly three miles by two miles wide. Although three of the subordinate peaks have names of their own (Roaring Mountain, Ox Hill, Bull Hill), none of them are noteworthy on their own, and the designation “Mount Toby” is most often used (locally and formally) to describe the entire geologic mass."Mount Toby Ecosystem.”
