Durham University is the third-oldest university in England and is regarded as quite prestigious there after Oxford and Cambridge. Like most old and prestigious universities they don't offer any online bachelors degrees.
However, as an Anglican university, Durham has become the academic degree validator of professional courses offered for Church of England ordinands. Various local schools offer these courses across England, leading to a CertHE, DipHE, BA, or MA degree.
One school, the Queen's Foundation in Birmingham, offers their BA and MA degrees entirely through online learning. This is the only online BA degree that is issued through Durham, and one of Durham's few online masters degrees.
(For a bit of context: Academic "validation" in the UK just means that a smaller school or college teaches the programme while a large overarching university issues the degree. The degree won't mention what school it was taught through, or that it was done online.)
