County Durham suffered horribly under the Iron Lady and is still quite a depressed place. This town was no exception. It's a bit eye-opening to see how these old mining towns live on. But the park was really beautiful. We caught it as the trees were starting to turn. These are a couple of my favourite shots from our walk.
As the name implies, Bishop Auckland is home to a Bishop - the Bishop of Durham. Ironic such a powerful, wealthy post should be based in such a poor mining town.
