Durham, County Durham, c1969-c1980. A general view of Durham, seen from the top of the Cathedral, showing Palace Green, Durham Castle, Market Place with St Nicholas' Church and the River Wear with Milburngate House in the background. The image has most likely been taken from the top of the crossing tower of Durham Cathedral, and looks north. In the foreground is Palace Green and Durham Castle, now the college, showing all ranges and the Keep, built between 1345 and 1381 for Bishop Hatfield. Further north is the spire of St Nicholas' Church, forming the north range of Market Place. The River Wear is positioned north-west, with Milburngate House on the west bank. It was built between 1965 and 1969 by TF Winterburn and commissioned by the Savings Certificates Division of the Post Office.
