Belmont Industrial Estate, Durham, DH1 1TH

Belmont is a suburb forming the north‑eastern parts of the city of Durham, England. The parish covers four old coal‑mining villages of Belmont, Carrville, Broomside and Gilesgate Moor, which have been joined by industrial and suburban developments since the 1950s. As such Belmont can be used either to refer narrowly to the old village area, or the wider parish, particularly the parts to the east of the A1(M) motorway which bisects the area. At the 2011 census, the parish had a population of 8,881. The area blends historic character with modern industrial and residential growth, reflecting its evolution from a coal‑mining community to a contemporary suburb of Durham.
