Broadband in Shildon, Durham

Shildon, a town in Durham, England, is home to households with all the broadband needs of modern British life. Shildon is considered to be the "cradle of the railways". The town grew when the Stockton and Darlington Railway established its workshops there in 1825. Shildon was the home of an innovator of the railway industry, Timothy Hackworth. He built one of the first ever engines, the Sans Pareil. His home and workshop are now a railway museum. The town is within the council area of County Durham.
