The covered market looks like it has been destroyed! The open market square is chained off for access! What is going on in Darlington???
Is it a safe place to live?
Such a shame to be a market town WITHOUT A MARKET , i know its used for other things but not very often. Any stalls now are stretched over a distance which makes it more difficult for people with a disability.
Darlington is such a great place. Now I see why they call it a gate to the Tees Valley. Thank you for your video.
No it's not safe we have incidents in the last two days
Hi, My name's Jake and I'm an editor at a media company called Beeston Media. We're interested in using your drone footage in a short film with Darlington council we're making on housing. Please could you reply back to my comment so I can provide you with more details?
Town center is clean but the residential areas are filthy Darington waists to much money on the past and nothings on the future.
