A stone arch bridge across the river Weir, it's construction was completed in 1778. The bridge was built slightly upstream of the previous bridge to give a better view of the cathedral.
Durham Cathedral was established as a shrine to St. Cuthbert in the year 995. The present cathedral was largely finished by 1093. It's the only cathedral in England to retain the Norman carftmanship. The western towers date from the 12th and 13th centuary with the central tower added in the 15th centuary.
