We are both fond of Beamish, it is one of those places that always has something new of interest. Find it difficult to put into words what it has to offer to people of all ages.

Gordon, the man in the lamp store was very good and gave us an  insight into the development of the Davey lamp.

The bus in the pictures may not be what it appears. It is actually quite new but designed to look old. Its main function is an access bus for people with wheelchairs.

Also, have a look at the marquee. Does Dover marquee know they have a tent that far north?

The horse. Whats that saying? you can take a horse to water but you cannot make it drink.

    I asked the man from Dover Marquee and he said must of been an old one they had sold, funnily enough he had only just found out about it from a friend of his but is quite interested in going to Beamish now and quite pleased of the free advertising!
