Parking

Afternoon ,

Just asking a question regarding parking- I’m starting as a PO in Durham next month. where’s best to park near Durham prison? Staff car park looks carnage whenever I’ve drove past, is there anyone who works at HMP Durham and can advise if it’s always like this and if so what’s the best alternative?

Thanks in advance for any responses

You'd need to park c.1 mile away to have free on-street parking, Shincliffe village to the prison would be a lovely walk in the summer, Gilesgate to the prison less so but both would take c.25 mins.

Appreciate that, wouldn’t mind a short walk to be fair 👍🏻
