Description
Bishop Auckland is a market town in County Durham, northern England. It is 12 miles northwest of Darlington and 12 miles southwest of Durham.
Much of the town's early history is linked to the Bishops of Durham and the establishment of Auckland Castle's predecessor, a hunting lodge which became the main residence of the bishops. This is reflected in the first part of the town's name.
Council and campaign leaders in County Durham have pinpointed Bishop Auckland as a 'major tourist trap' after it was announced that the historic market town had received over £72m in government funding to revitalise it. Bishop Auckland was recently granted £19.9m from the Future High Streets Fund, £32.2m from the Towns Fund and an additional £20m from the Levelling Up Fund.
These government funding streams have been designed to transform various locations across the UK, helping them to strengthen their economic position post-Covid and breathe new life into businesses and communities, allowing areas to prosper in the future.
