Trivia
This junction used to be the start of the A1231 to Sunderland until an extension was built to the north meaning the A1231 now plugs into J65. Although there is no access from the south so traffic headed to the A1231 from the south must still use this junction.
Until late 2010 the northbound slip from the A1(M) used to be two narrow lanes, it is now hatched down to one lane around the tight corner of the slip road until it opens up on the A195(M)
