Durham Amateur Rowing Club

Durham Amateur Rowing Club is set in a stunning location on a bend in the River Wear, opposite Pelaw Woods, and at the end of Green Lane, Durham City. There is approximately 2 kilometres of navigable river from the footbridge at Maiden Castle to the weir beyond Prebends Bridge. With many bends, several bridges (including the narrow arches of Elvet Bridge, part of the ‘long course’) and some steeply wooded banks, the river meanders through the heart of Durham City. It’s an idyllic, if at times rather crowded stretch of water.
