Beamish open air museum |
|
I had the
pleasure of visiting Beamish museum on my visit to Newcastle in
May 2000. It was a very interesting experience, and the area they
have created here really gives the impression of how life was in
a mining town around the turn of the last century. This museum is
really worth a visit.
