Durham Cathedral is renowned as a masterpiece of Romanesque (or Norman) architecture. It was begun in 1093 and largely completed within 40 years. Together with its neighbour Durham Castle, the cathedral is now a World Heritage Site.

"Durham Cathedral is renowned as a masterpiece of Romanesque (or Norman) architecture. It was begun in 1093 and largely completed within 40 years. The Cathedral is built on a strategic peninsula of land created by a loop in the River Wear and its west end towers over a precipitous gorge. Together with its neighbour Durham Castle, the cathedral is now a World Heritage Site. The Old Fulling Mill next to a weir on the river, dates mostly from the 15th Century and played a key part of Durham's cloth-making industry.
