Westgate is also the entrance to Slitt wood and an old abandoned lead mine. Other features of the village include a caravan site and a football and basketball court.

Weardale Railway

At one time, the village was once served by a railway station, that was on the Weardale Railway (that once ran up the valley to Wearhead).

The line has now long been preserved and currently running between Bishop Auckland and nearby Eastgate-In-Weardale, whilst the former Westgate station itself, is now long closed and under different use.
