AFAIK, the Durham toll is on vehicles wanting to drive up to the Cathedral.

Quote:
Durham County Council introduced the toll for drivers using 1,000-year-old Saddler Street in the city centre which stands on the peninsula above the River Wear.
This is the only public access road leading to the World Heritage Site of Durham Cathedral and Durham Castle.
It was mainly introduced to reduce traffic flow using the road.
