The Bishop Auckland Baptist Church is seen across the delightfully named Tittybottle Park which has been restored recently: 2011. The origin of the name - a nickname really - is reportedly that nursemaids would gather there in earlier times (when this was an affluent part of the town) to chat and feed their babies.
