In this stunning aerial capture, two of Durham’s most iconic landmarks sit perfectly in harmony — the magnificent Durham Cathedral and the elegant modern lines of Kingsgate Bridge. The cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site dating back to the 11th century, towers over the historic city with its powerful Norman architecture and intricate details, while Kingsgate Bridge, designed by the celebrated engineer Sir Ove Arup in 1963, provides a graceful pedestrian crossing over the River Wear below.
This high-resolution image offers a unique perspective, highlighting the rich contrast between Durham's ancient heritage and its mid-20th century engineering innovation, all framed by the lush greenery of the surrounding woodlands. A must-have for admirers of Durham’s architecture, history lovers, or anyone who treasures this beautiful cityscape.
