Durham Heritage Coast: Turning the Tide

The Durham Coast suffered environmental degradation from 100 years of colliery spoil tipping. The Turning the Tide programme, funded by the Millennium Commission, removed tonnes of spoil from the coastline and reclaimed land. Improved access for communities and visitors was made possible by the creation of the Durham Coastal Footpath, enabling people to walk the coast for the first time; new grassland open areas were also created by for everyone to enjoy.
