Durham City Centre

This is the exact center of the city - a statue of the Earl of Durham - whoever he is?!? This is where the market on Saturdays is set up with fresh produce and stuff.
Another market shot. The building to the left with the work scaffolding is an old church where a couple of our friends have visited. We will probably give it a shot soon.
The River Wear. The river separates the "outskirts" of Durham from the City Centre, the University, the Castle and the Cathedral.
The entranceway to the Castle grounds.
Another shot of the City Centre from the opposite viewpoint. All the roads are cobblestone within the city. This was taken around lunchtime when it is busiest.
