Hexham
Close to Hadrian's Wall, Hexham is steeped in history.
Hexham Bridge, spanning the Tyne with its nine arches of
stone, was built in 1793. The town has two medieval towers -
Moot Hall and the Old Gaol, which tell the bloody story of the
Reivers and house the Border History Museum. You can also
visit beautiful Hexham Abbey with its ornate carvings.
Whitehaven - an 'England Gem Town'
Mining in Whitehaven began in the 13th century. The full
story is told at the Beacon and Haig Colliery Mining Museum.
The town's picture-postcard harbour dates back to 1633 and
visit the Rum Story to savour the 'Dark Spirit of Whitehaven'.
Carlisle - The Great Border City
As well as exploring mysterious chambers, stairways and
dungeons at Carlisle Castle and seeing the 'licking stones'
(once a source of lifesaving moisture for prisoners), you'll also
find the Border Regiment Museum there. The magnificent
cathedral has superb oak carvings and the Citadel, once a
prison, is as captivating as ever.
Newcastle-upon-Tyne
Take in the stunning views of the Tyne and the Newcastle
and Gateshead quaysides from the world's first tilting bridge,
the Millennium Bridge. The Baltic Centre art gallery and the
striking Sage Music Centre are both nearby.
Sunderland
The Museum and Winter Gardens has paintings by Lowry,
Victorian masterpieces and a spectacular display of flowers and
plants. International work is showcased at the Northern Gallery
for Contemporary Art, and other shining attractions are the
National Glass Centre and Sunderland AFC's Stadium of Light.
Prudhoe
Pronounced 'Pruddah', meaning proud heights, Prudhoe is
the gateway to beautiful Tynedale. Prudhoe Castle has been
continuously occupied for over nine centuries and an
exhibition, including site finds, helps you fully appreciate
this fine and formidable fortress.
