Cat Flap & Dog Flap Installation in Durham
This small cathedral city is dominated by its World Heritage cathedral and castle, with a large student population and terraced streets on steep hillsides. Housing figures for the wider council area are on our County Durham page.
The peninsula and conservation area
Durham Castle and Cathedral are a World Heritage Site, and the city centre is a conservation area with many listed buildings. Altering original doors or walls of listed homes needs consent from the county council.
Student lets and hillside terraces
Areas such as the Viaduct, Gilesgate and Neville's Cross have many houses let to university students. Tenants need their landlord's written permission. Many streets are steep, so for a dog flap, consider the step outside the back door.
