An early start this morning as we begin our journey north to Beamish, where we spend the day.

Beamish is a world famous open-air museum, telling the story of life in North East England during the 1820s, 1900s and 1940s.  Highlights include 1900s Town, 1900s Pit Village, 1940s Farm and Rowley Station.  Step 'behind the scenes' into the Open Store and see some fascinating objects stored in the collections.  Explore the sight and get a real taste of the past.  

Catering outlets across the site serve up traditional tasty treats, from homemade hot meals to delicious snacks, cakes and drinks.
