Whinney Hill (street)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Whinney Hill is a street in the city of Durham, in England, on a hill of the same name. It is in the south-east of the city and runs north-south from Durham Prison and the Durham City Cricket Grounds, on the banks of the River Wear, to the roundabout on the Stockton-on-Tees road near the University of Durham science site.

Durham's first passenger station was built at the north end of Whinney Hill, on the site of what is now Durham Magistrates' Court and Durham University's Parsons Field buildings.
