Saddler Street Durham was historically called Fleshergate meaning Flesh-hewers’ street (butchers). At the centre are the Magdalene Steps. The short street to the left leading to Elvet Bridge was historically called Souter Peth (shoemakers’ street). Peth is an interesting word.

Cross Fell, the highest Pennine hill, viewed from the Eden valley on the Cumberland side of the Pennines. The Tees and South Tyne both begin their journey at this hill. It is also the source of the Crowdundle Beck, part of the historic boundary between Westmorland and Cumberland.

Book ‘City of York’ (Town and Country series) available from Tangled Worm tangledworm.com/shop/city-of…
Researching my book on the City of York, I was struck by how York's origins are often a boar - a wild boar to be exact. Firstly it is well-known the Anglo-Saxon name for York 'Eoforwic' means 'wild boar settlement' an interpretation of the Roman name Eboracum. A thread. 1/6

My new book on York includes lots of connections to North East England. The Community of St Cuthbert held a large portion of York; Jonathan Martin, a Northumbrian arsonist tried to burn York Minster down; George Hudson, York’s corrupt ‘Railway King’ was an MP for Sunderland etc.
