5. Late Durham Sculptor Remembered Last month, friends of the late William Kent (Wiliamson) gathered at his studio on Howd Road for a memorial honoring the man some have called the world's greatest wood sculptor.

Kent, who was 93 when he died in August, worked on his giant carvings until a few days before his passing.
