Durham History
![And none more so than the legend of the Sockburn Worm—a tale that gave rise to a ceremony still celebrated today. The formidable Sockburn Worm once terrorised this land, and it was Sir John Conyers who stepped forward as the hero, armed with his trusty falchion. Today, the Conyers Falchion remains a symbol of bravery, presented to each new Bishop of Durham in a ritual that bridges the present with a mythical past. Visitors to Durham Cathedral can still glimpse this storied relic as part of the Open Treasure Exhibition. } ] }](https://durhammagazine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/sword-324x235.webp "The Enchanted Tale of the Sockburn Worm: Durham’s Mystical Dragon Slayer")
