INTRODUCTION:
The Cathedral Church of Christ, Blessed Mary the Virgin and St Cuthbert of Durham, otherwise known simply as Durham Cathedral is in the city of Durham, in North east England. The cathedral is thought to be one of the finest examples of Norman architecture and because of this has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with the Castle which is opposite the Cathedral just cross Palace Green.
The Cathedral was built on a peninsula of land created by a loop in the meandering River Wear and the west end towers over the gorge. The northern front of the Cathedral faces onto Palace green and from here you can get a view of the entire 143 metres of this building which is an imposing sight.

Limehouse Lizzy were playing in Wolverhampton, so, as my boyfriend?s house was an expensive taxi ride away and it was valentines we decided to make a weekend of it. (Yes, in Wolverhampton: P)

When we were having some work done to our home, we found ourselves in absolute chaos. It was so bad it wasn't even liveable, so we decided to up sticks and pack a couple of bags and escape for a couple of nights. We have a few 'posh' hotels near our home in Worcestershire, all of which were out of our budget so we opted for our local travelodge in Droitwich.
The Travelodge in Droitwich is conveniently situated just off Junction 5 of the M5 in Worcestershire. When exiting the motorway simply head down the A38 (Rashwood Hill) to Droitwich town centre and it is located around 1/2mile down this road on the right hand side. It is also just two miles from Droitwich train station too. For those with a sat nav system the postcode for this Travelodge is WR8 0BJ.
The lodge is situated in quite a quiet part of Worcestershire and although you ...
