Looking along Skinnergate in Darlington
This is one of the main shopping streets in the town centre. It was part of the old medieval town, which is where the name comes from. It means the street of the tanners. Gate meaning a street in Norse and is common in northern English towns which were once part of the Viking settlements in the early middle ages. The present buildings are all C19 or later. View is looking north to the junction with Duke Street on the left.
