Barnard Castle is a historic market town in Teesdale, County Durham, in the North of England. It is located on the north bank of the River Tees, and is known for its rich history, picturesque location, and many attractions.

One of the town's most notable features is the ruins of Barnard Castle, a medieval fortress that dates back to the 12th century. The castle was built by Bernard de Balliol, a Norman lord who was granted the lands by William the Conqueror. Today, the castle ruins are a popular attraction for visitors, offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

In addition to its historic attractions, Barnard Castle is also known for its bustling high street, which is lined with independent shops, cafes, and restaurants. The town also has several traditional pubs, many of which serve local ales and hearty pub food.
