Website Creation: Built for Local Businesses in Crossgate Moor
In County Durham's corner of the North East region, Crossgate Moor covers postcode district DH1 and borders Neville's Cross, Houghall and Merryoaks. Durham Castle and Cathedral were among the UK's first UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and nearby Bishop Auckland's Auckland Castle served as the residence of the Prince-Bishops of Durham for almost 900 years.
Durham BID (trading as Life in Durham) represents businesses across the city, working to make it a better place to trade and visit; no equivalent BID covers Bishop Auckland. Government data (ONS, March 2026) counted 14,825 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses here.
14,565 active businesses were registered in County Durham in 2024 (ONS). That kind of churn is precisely why website creation matters - standing still isn't an option when the market around you isn't.
