From the Norman grandeur of Durham Cathedral and the wild moorland of Teesdale and Weardale to the massive investments being made in high-tech manufacturing, this website portrays a county in which the ancient and modern happily co-exist to create a unique style and quality of life.

These images have been gathered with the co-operation of a number of public and private sector organisations which together form the County Durham Economic Development Partnership. They are provided to you on this website for you to download free of charge, subject to our terms of use.
