Chester-le-Street is viewed along a calm river towards a large Gothic church tower and green valley slopes. This poster uses the water's reflection and the tree-lined bank to give the County Durham town a quiet centre.

A broad Gothic church and square tower rise above Chester-le-Street, seen across still water and a low stone river wall. Trees frame both banks, while pale paths run beside the water towards the church. Fields and low hills behind the town give the scene an open County Durham backdrop.

This Chester-le-Street poster is built around the river approach, where the reflection of the church draws the eye through the trees. The combination of water, path and tower gives the town a recognisable structure without crowding the scene. It is suited to someone who remembers the town from its riverside walks and the church seen above the bank.
