Despite its width or lack of it, North Bailey (and its continuation behind the camera, South Bailey) is the main north / south thoroughfare on the central part of Durham containing the Castle and Cathedral. This is almost an island, and everything is quite compact. Here the photographer is standing just east of the cathedral, looking north. On the left is the even narrower Dun Cow Lane.
