Lambton Estate
With a heritage stretching back to the 11th Century and a distinct sense of place, Lambton Park, the ancestral seat of the Earls of Durham, is one of the most intriguing historic places in the region. The Lambton family are one of the oldest in the region and the history, landscape, buildings and archaeology of the Park, capture the story of the region. Whilst Lambton Park has remained relatively private over the years, there will be many in the region who associate it with fun filled family days out. As a key part of the growing community, there are a number of local retail units to support the growth of the estate which could consist of a cafe, butchers, bakers, delicatessen and convenience store.
