20의 Lanchester가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The cathedral was originally constructed to house the relics of St Cuthbert, a beloved Northumbrian saint. His shrine is a significant pilgrimage destination.

From Hownsgill Viaduct you can see for miles around whilst standing on the old railway bridge. The actual bridge has elevated side wall protector barriers, this to stop anything going over the side, the drop below is considerably higher than a house. There were high winds on the bridge on the day I rode over, the barriers also protect from the weather. You get very good views over both sides of the bridge.

Viaduct is now open, the paving is slightly bumpy though!

It can be zla lovely short varied walk, in nice place, if you pick the right weather & time of year but remember it's popular with dog walkers & the Tanfield railway runs a long the top. This can make for a good day out traveling the line & walking the alley to have a picnic or visit the cafe in the summer.

A television series that I can recommend without reservation presents the culture-loving viewer (in German) with remarkable examples of human creativity from many countries around the world. What they all have in common is that they have been given "world heritage" status by UNESCO. One of the contributions documents: "Like a grey rock, Durham Cathedral, located in the north-east of England near the Scottish border, towers over the roofs of the city. Half church and half bastion, this building is an impressive example of early Romanesque church architecture in England. The three-storey Anglo-Norman cathedral with a 2 m thick arcade wall and Norman castle complex, the later seat of the bishops of Durham, was declared a cultural monument." This film can be found in the ARD media library under the following link: https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/die-kathedrale-von-durham-grossbritannien-folge-138/3sat/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS83MTY4ODA2

I drove down this former railway line from the top with the wind at my back. What a great experience and easy way to move quickly through the landscape.

Perfect if you want to spend a couple of hours surrounded by nature and see some lovely views. Wear comfortable shoes, take some water. I hiked it in shorts but I think you’d be more comfortable wearing longer pants. Enjoy!

Causey Arch is the oldest surviving single span railway bridge in the world. It was built in 1727 and at the time was also the widest single span bridge. It used to carry the coal trains from a nearby colliery but that's long closed.
