The Dispensary Cafe - Barnard Castle

Books and lp’s for sale. ian bought the beethoven on disc. there were paintings by local artists on the wall and some Kitsch models of building houses high on regals. no price tags visible, we thought they were not for sale. I haven't discovered a teekanne. the caffe was very pleasant with a good selection of scenes rolls and baked.

Went to a WI meeting at the Witham. Was well organised, good seating, refreshments and interesting talk on sign language. Very welcoming and friendly. I will go back for the next WI meeting at Witham third Monday in June.

Visited the Witham to see comedian Alfie Moore at a Funny Way to Be night. Alfie was superb. Kept the audience engaged from beginning to end.

Fantastic venue as always. Love coming here. At least 10 gigs now. Always a pleasure . Simon brodkin tonight.

I visited The Witham for the first time on Friday during the Radio 4 program "Any Questions," which was broadcast from this location. The Witham is a modern multi-purpose center situated in the heart of Barnard Castle, right next to the Morrison car park. It features a variety of facilities, including a café and a hall for hosting events and shows. It was the perfect venue for the program. I plan to spend more time there on my next visit to the city.
