Medieval wall painting 'a sensational discovery'
The Journal
|March 19, 2026
A PREVIOUSLY hidden medieval wall painting at Durham Castle has been uncovered by university archaeologists.
Dr Andrew Ferrara and Nattakrit Wanthanom study the painting uncovered at Durham Castle
The artwork, which was revealed during renovations of the landmark building, could date back to the late 13th to early 14th centuries, at least 700 years ago.
It was covered by plasterwork and 1950s wall panelling, and is made up of an outlined masonry pattern with a central flower and stem motif.
Experts from Durham University say that this decoration confirms that the section of the castle, known since the 19th century as the Senate Suite, was a 'high-status area' in the medieval period.
Further research is now being carried out to see what the painting could teach about the history of the castle, which was once the seat of the Prince Bishops of Durham.
Current investigations have revealed an extensive level of redecoration in the last 1,000 years.
