AFAICT that's the first time I've learned your exactish location, which I'm deliriously happy to learn hosts a statue of Stan Laurel.

Well, that's my exactish location when I'm up in Durham, normally I'm in Chatham, which as part of the Medway Towns with Rochester is forever Dickens territory.

And yes, there's a statue of Stan Laurel, rather a good one, IMO. His parents ran the Eden Theatre when he was growing up, IIRC. Other locals you may have heard of include a certain Mr Dixon, who had a friend called Mason.
