Durham Essentials

Durham’s historic core is anchored by its UNESCO-listed Cathedral and Castle, showcasing premier examples of Norman architecture. The city’s medieval layout features the cobbled Market Place, home to the Victorian Indoor Market and the Grade II* listed Town Hall. Scenic river walks lead across the 18th-century Prebends Bridge, offering views of the Old Fulling Mill and the cathedral’s sandstone walls. Cultural highlights include the Palace Green Library’s archives and the medieval manor and gardens of Crook Hall.
