Old Durham Town

by

Joyce Hemsley

Come all ye jolly wayfarers
and visit old Durham town -
a town with long years of history
a superior place of renown.

A Norman Cathedral and Castle,
bridges and an old-fashioned mill
could fill your day out with wonder.
Come, and climb up Old Elvet Hill.

Explore the City of Princes
take a trip up the river Wear,
see trees so green - a University,
Minster bells you surely will hear!

Durham Miners' Gala is famous,
held every year in July;
brass bands play through narrow streets
and banners are held way up high.

It's well worth a visit, believe me,
just to admire the encompassing view,
and enjoy some time in a market town
where "St.Cuthbert" is calling to you.
