The country park in the grounds of Auckland Castle is mostly in the area between the River Wear and the River Gaunless. The castle is the home for the Prince Bishops of Durham. It's open to the public (paid entry) to visit and view over q 1000 years of history. The castle sits in an area of deer park which you can walk through. There is also a deer shelter built in the style of a castle or folly that was designed to provide feeding and shelter for the deer and a place for a picnic for the wealthy residents.
