SETTLEMENTS 8 County Durham Settlement Study September 2017 Planning the future of County Durham 1 Context 1 Context County Durham has a population of 224,000 households (Census 2011) and covers an area of 222,600 hectares. The County stretches from the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in the west to the North Sea Heritage Coast in the east and borders Gateshead and Sunderland, Northumberland, Cumbria and Hartlepool, Stockton, Darlington and North Yorkshire. Although commonly regarded as a predominantly rural area, the County varies in character from remote and sparsely populated areas in the west, to the former coalfield communities in the centre and east, where 90% of the population lives east of the A68 road in around half of the County by area. The Settlement Study 2017 seeks to provide an understanding of the number and range of services available within each of the 230 settlements within County Durham. (a) Identifying the number and range of services and facilities available within a settlement is useful context to inform decision making both for planning applications and policy formulation. The range and number of services within a settlement is usually, but not always, proportionate to the size of its population. The services within a settlement will generally determine a settlement's role and sphere of influence. This baseline position provides one aspect for considering sustainability and should be used alongside other relevant, local circumstances.

Cosin, Bishop of Durham, 1660-72, was the chief instrument of the government in the north-east of England. Within the Diocese he attempted to enforce universal compliance with the Church of England.

  • Fields, Farms and Sun-Division in a Moorland Region, 1100–1400*
    AGHR52_1.qxd 15/06/2007 10:23 Page 20 Fields, farms and sun-division in a moorland region, 1100–1400* by Richard Britnell Abstract Earlier work combining the pre-Black Death charter evidence and post-medieval maps for county Durham has shown how extensive areas of waste survived in the county until the early modern period. This paper begins by considering the enclosed arable land of townships within the larger waste, showing how it was normally held in furlongs which often show evidence of subdivision according to the princi- ples of sun-division. The right to graze the remaining waste is discussed. The Bishops of Durham were in the habit of granting enclosures from the waste by charter: the arable of these enclosed farms might also be divided by sun-division. Recent research in the medieval archives of the bishopric and priory of Durham, in conjunc- tion with cartographic evidence drawn from more recent periods, has established that in county Durham before the twelfth century, small townships, with their fields, were separated from each other by extensive tracts of waste. Land use was modified between the twelfth and early fourteenth centuries, especially in the less heavily settled parts of central Durham, by peasant clearing of new lands and the creation of hundreds of new, compact farms, but even in the early fourteenth century there remained large areas of moor, not only in the land rising west of the Wear, and above the Wear valley, but also in more easterly parts of the county. This abundance of colonizable land was characteristic of many parts of northern Britain: similar landscapes in West Yorkshire, Northumberland and Cumbria have been well described in recent studies, though from types of record different from those available in Durham.1 Though many charac- teristics of such late colonized landscapes are best illustrated in a general overview, any detailed account of how these landscapes developed must rely on concentrations of more local evidence.
