Durham is a beautiful city in County Durham in the North-East of England. The Summer Study 2006 course Northumbria: Ancient, Modern and Post-Modern was held there in August led by the well informed and most entertaining George Paterson. He's seen here performing the ritual headcount before we set off on one of our days out - hence the serious expression of concentration. |

Places visited on the course included:
Wearmouth, NGC, Souter Lighthouse, Jarrow, Bede's World, Newcastle, Tyne Theatre, St. James's Park, Whitefriars, Beamish, & Causey Arch.
I also visited Langwathby and Little Salkeld and Weardale on my way to Durham; Shildon on my way home; and various parts of the Durham area during the free time.
