Durham, County Durham, c1955-c1980. A general view of Durham overlooking the River Wear and Framwellgate Bridge, with Durham Castle to the left and the Cathedral Church in the background, seen from a high vantage in the north-west. The cathedral in the distance has a cruciform plan with crossing tower of two stages, large square west towers and short eastern towers with spires. To the left is the castle, showing the exterior elevation of the north and west range, which is now part of Durham college. The north range housed Constable's hall and galleries and the west range included a hall and kitchens. In the midground is a partial view of Framwellgate Bridge, which crosses the River Wear north-west of the castle, and other buildings and houses north of the castle.
