Durham is a cathedral city in northeast England, where the River Wear loops round a wooded peninsula crowned by a Norman cathedral and castle that together form a UNESCO World Heritage Site. See Durham Castle and Palace Green, the cathedral and Cosin's Library, Crook Hall and the ruins of Finchale Priory on the river, and visit the Durham Miners' Hall at Redhills and St Cuthbert's Church.
