Durham
Main dogging sites and
directions for Durham, including major towns and cities: Durham,
Sunderland, Stockton-on-Tees, Darlington, Hartlepool, Gateshead and
Washington.
Bishop Auckland
- Over the Viaduct towards Crook
there is a small carp-ark on the right, along with a picnic
area and old railway (walkway). Dogging action after dark.
|
Crook
- Picnic area on A68 near to Crook
with 24 hour toilets. Lots of wooded areas, popular with
both the gay community and doggers.
|
Darlington
- On the A66, eastbound from
Darlington towards Stockton. A long layby, set back from
road, about half way between Darlington and Stockton. Late
nights around 11.30, various activity including male/female
couples.
- The lay-by at Swan House in
Darlington is located about one and a half along the
Darlington to Corbridge road and is surrounded by trees.
There is a secluded path leading away from the area, and
this is where the dogging action takes place. The site is
also used by the local gay community.
|
Newton Aycliffe
- South of Newton Aycliffe on the
A68 towards Corbridge. A layby just past the Caravan Dealers
on the left. It's surrounded by trees with lots of dogging
activity with couples and singles. Especially at the
weekend.
|
Rushyford
- Off the A1 take the A689 exit to
Rushyford, south of Durham. Before the roundabout is a long
lay-by behind trees. Gay area but known for dogging couples
as well.
Update: We've been told that this layby is now closed
- anyone care to verify this, so we can remove this dogging
site from here?
|
Seaham
- Seaham car-park on the sea front
next to Seaham Hall gates and on the coast road towards
Ryhope next to the railway.
|
Sedgefield
- Come off the A19 and follow
towards Sedgefield Racecoures. Take a right at the round
about and you'll end up at Hardwick Hall. Best between 7pm
and 2am for couples.

Roundabout. Take first turning on left down country lane.

Tow Law off A68. Heading north out of Tow Law on A68 passed
the salt dump and picnic area on right, proceed for 0.6 of a
mile to crossroads and turn left and follow the road to the
wooded area at the old POW camp - exceptional on a fine day
but not when raining. Ideal for indoor or outdoor dogging
activities.
