  • Northern Saints Trails the Way of Love Durham to Hartlepool
    Northern Saints Trails The Way of Love Durham to Hartlepool Introduction This guide describes the pilgrimage route between Durham Cathedral and St Hilda’s Church in Hartlepool. All the Northern Saints Trails use the same waymark shown on the left. The total distance is 45.5 kilometres or 28 miles. The route is divided into four sections of between 9 and 15 kilometres. The sections are in reverse order from 4 to 1 as they were originally allocated from east to west. Points of interest are described in red. One of the reasons that this route is called The Way of Love is that pilgrimage, particularly in the Middle Ages, was viewed as an act of devotion. One of the most famous pilgrimages to Durham was that of King Canute about a thousand years ago. He is recorded as walking barefoot from near the Trimdons to Durham. The church in Kelloe is dedicated to St Helen who was one of the initiators of pilgrimages to the Holy Land. Two other churches at Hart and Trimdon are dedicated to St Mary Magdalene who was known for her great devotion to Christ. St Hilda of Hartlepool was also known for her great devotion to God. Adding the fact that the cathedral is dedicated not just to St Cuthbert, but also to the Blessed Virgin Mary, we can say that this route has a distinctly feminine flavour! If you had been walking this route in the Middle Ages, and you encountered someone carrying a cross walking to Hartlepool, he would most likely be a fugitive.
