Durham

At the bottom of the local market, unleaded starts around 159p per litre right now. There is very little between the cheapest and dearest unleaded locally right now.

Supermarket forecourts from Sainsburys usually anchor the bottom of the local range. Supermarkets account for 1 of the 12 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

Sainsburys around Unit K has been setting the cheapest unleaded price locally of late. Forecourts on Frederick Street and Durham Road carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

Average unleaded here tracks the wider North East England figure closely. Diesel averages around 182p per litre across the stations listed for Durham.

Everything within about 8 km of the centre is included, so edge-of-town and retail park sites appear alongside the central forecourts. Prices in Durham can move mid-week as well as at weekends, so the ordering above is worth a glance even if you always use the same forecourt.
