About

Newton Hall and Brasside lie to the east and north‑east of Durham city centre and form a mix of suburban streets, small shopping parades and patches of open ground. Newton Hall is mainly residential and is served by local schools, a community centre and convenience shops clustered along the estate. Footpaths and green corridors run between housing areas and link out to fields on the town edge, giving direct pedestrian routes to nearby allotments and playing fields. In Brasside the landscape changes to a looser settlement pattern with a scattering of businesses and institutional sites; the Frankland prison complex is located there and marks a clear local landmark in the parish.

Local transport focuses on bus services into Durham and regional routes for commuters, while minor roads connect the two places with adjacent suburbs. Brasside has a small concentration of light industrial and commercial premises that serve the north‑east fringe of the city. Residents rely on a mix of village‑scale amenities and Durham’s services for shopping, healthcare and cultural facilities, using regular public transport or short car journeys.
