Hi

Lanchester and Iveston are both on the road from Durham to Consett. Leadgate is near Consett.

Here's a link to a map of the area:

Cheers

It's definitely there!  I grew up not far away.  It's outside Leadgate on the way to Lanchester - at the top of a hill where my husband and I once did a rather scary skid in the snow!
