Prince Bishop River Cruise & BBQ

On the Monday evening of the workshop we have organised a boat cruise on the Prince Bishop River Cruiser, which offers beautiful views of historic Durham City, Cathedral, Castle and Bridges. A BBQ dinner will be served on the boat (including vegetarian options) and a bar is also available onboard.

For more information please visit: http://www.princebishoprc.co.uk/

The cruise starts at 7:30pm (boarding at 7:00pm), till 11:00pm.

The cost of the ticket is 15 GBP, including dinner.
Places are limited to 100 people, so do not wait to sign up! You can sign up at the point of registration.


Trip to Hadrian's Wall

The Wednesday afternoon of the workshop will be left free of talks and we will arrange a visit to Hadrian's Wall - part of the fortifications marking the northern border of the Roman Empire, built around 122AD. We will travel by coach to a section of the wall near the village "Once Brewed". Our visit will last 2.5 hours, offering the opportunity to hike along this section of the wall (at your own pace) and enjoy the spectacular views over Crag Lough and the local countryside. We will return by coach in time for the workshop dinner.

Alternatively, you are free to remain in Durham to explore the city and visit the local sights of interest (e.g such as the World Heritge site that includes the castle and cathedral)

For more information see: http://www.thisisdurham.com/

Registration for the trip will be available at the workshop registration.
