Gilesgate is a street and an eastern inner suburb of Durham in County Durham, England. The street was once the main eastern route into Durham City. It runs east from the end of Claypath on the edge of Durham City centre, steeply uphill to Gilesgate Moor where it splits into Sunderland Road and Sherburn Road. As a suburb, Gilesgate is only loosely defined. Administratively at a local scale, it is split between the Elvet and Gilesgate Ward of the City of Durham parish, the Gilesgate Moor Ward of Belmont and an unparished area between the two. The Gilesgate Moor and Old Durham Middle Layer Super Output Area, approximating most of what is called Gilesgate, had a population at the 2021 census of 6746.
