Barnard Castle, c. 1920 and the frozen River Tees
From the Darlington & Stockton Times of February 11, 1871

This is probably a misprint, as Lendings Mill was a little to the south of Barney and today, a large static caravan park in Startforth occupies its site.
The boys decided, said the D&S, to take a short cut over the ice to the Desmesnes on the north bank of the river. As they reached the far bank, the ice gave way. ....

ROAD CAMPAIGNER: Jennie White
A RESIDENT who highlighted how the A66 dualling project could lead to traffic problems in Startforth has agreed to join a new group which aims to address future concerns associated with the scheme.

Lower levels of violence but drugs remain a concern at Deerbolt YOI

REPORT: Deerbolt YOI
COVID-19 restrictions have led to a reduction in violence at Deerbolt Prison, but they have also ended all rehabilitation and education efforts, a report has revealed.
The Startforth jail’s independent monitoring board (IMB) highlighted a host of concerns including fake solicitors’ letters infused with drugs being sent to prisoners, some facilities and equipment in dire need of repair and education staff being removed from the site during the pandemic.
However, it praised a change in senior staff which brought “new energy, enthusiasm and insights that have noticeably improved the performance of the prison”.
Board chairman John Stoney said 2020 got off to a bad start with a serious incident in January. ....

Later in the meeting, councillors were asked for their views on proposals by acting Durham Police, Crime and Victims’ Commissioner Steve White to add £15 to council tax bills – a seven per cent increase and the maximum he is allowed. ....
