Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RWMEJN - Taken on 15 Sep 2023, this photograph shows J&G Archibald Ltd grid, Gilesgate Goods Station, Durham City, England, UK, DH1 1QG. The location is Durham City, England, UK, DH1 1QG. The picture is not just a record shot: it contains platform, concourse or service signage details that place the railway scene in a real working transport environment. Barnard Castle is a historic Teesdale market town, with stone streets, independent shops and castle associations that support tourism, heritage trails and local retail photography. It could support features on pubs, beer, leisure, nightlife, tourism, heritage streets, local economies, independent hospitality and the pressures facing town-centre venues. For image buyers, the value is in the combination of recognisable subject, readable wording, location evidence and a plain documentary style that can be dropped into news, magazine, web, council, housing, transport, heritage or commercial commentary without looking over-produced. Searchable related phrases include Stanhope, Barnard Castle, Gilesgate Goods Station, Gilesgate, Durham City, embossed, diamonds, rusty, rusting, cover, County Durham, history, plus wider ideas such as local identity, public realm, urban detail, social history, commercial change, everyday Britain, documentary photography and place-based storytelling. The composition gives designers scope for captions, page furniture, social media crops, report covers and article thumbnails, while the detailed captioning makes it more discoverable for searches using both specific place names and broader themes. Because the subject is clearly labelled or visually distinctive, it can also work well in search-led usage where the buyer needs immediate recognition at small web-preview size. Further SEO-friendly usage could include local services, town-centre change,heritage branding, British social history, public infrastruce

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RWMEN5 - The Durham University Library is the centrally administered library of Durham University in England and is part of the university's Library and Collections department. It was founded in January 1833 at Palace Green by a 160 volume donation by the then Bishop of Durham, William Van Mildert, and now holds over 1.6 million printed items. Since 1937, the university library has incorporated the historic Cosin's Library, founded by Bishop Cosin in 1669. Cosin's Library and the Sudan Archive held at Palace Green Library are designated collections under Arts Council England's Designation Scheme for collections of national and international significance
two collections at Durham University Oriental Museum
Cosin's Library was established in 1669 by Bishop John Cosin. The building was built in 1667“69 by the Quaker architect John Langstaffe specifically to house Cosin's collection of over 5,000 books.
Expansion on Palace Green
The university library initially used the new gallery installed in Cosin's Library. However, after it received Martin Routh's library in 1855 this space proved insufficient and it expanded into the upper floor of the Exchequer Building next door. Additional donations came from Bishop Edward Maltby in 1856 and Thomas Masterman Winterbottom in 1859.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HWM7 - August, always a mad busy crazy time in Edinburgh, during the festival and fringe, which seems to have grown even bigger than the tattoo and festival. There's no shortage of scaryness and satire here!.
Echo and Narcissus @ Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012. From Rag and Bone Productions the Venue was theSpace on North Bridge. It was on until 18th August 2012 @ venue 36.
As the review says, Sometimes it is hard to tell image from reality until the illusion is shattered at the tap of a finger. Durham University's Rag & Bone Productions use an exciting combination of physical theatre, drama and dance to bring you this dark and innovative take on a classic Greek myth. The tragic story of Echo and Narcissus follows the disastrous consequences of a man falling in love with his own reflection. Rag & Bone successfully fuse visual spectacle with the best of storytelling to explore this tale of hurt, rejection, pride and vanity. Not to be missed!
Narcissus, is a young man blessed with untold beauty, who spurns all amorous advances, be they from citizens, nymphs, or just about anyone who can appreciate the beauty of the perfect human form. Meanwhile, talkative forest nymph Echo is tasked by Zeus to distract his wife Hera with incredible stories while he has an affair. Hera finds out and curses Echo to be able to repeat only the ends of sentences spoken to her (hence her name, Echo).
She runs into Narcissus in a forest, he rejects her fumbled echoes and she wastes away until she is nothing but a voice. Narcissus rejects one final advance of an older man by the name of Ameinus and mocks him for his futile attempts, daring him to kill himself. Ameinus does so, but curses Narcissus beforehand, resulting in Artemis bewitching Narcissus to fall in love with the next person he sees.
As he is hunting in the woods, he stops to rest by a quiet pool in a grassy clearing and falls in love with his own reflection. At a loss, he plunges in to reach the young man but drowns. A s

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RWMENC - Taken on 15 Sep 2023, this photograph shows Failure and corrosion of concrete tie bars, in a 1960s building in Durham, England, UK,. The location is Durham, England, UK. The picture is not just a record shot: it contains public house signs, frontage, street activity or drinking culture details useful for hospitality and heritage features.
