As it is Remembrance Sunday today, we've taken a look through some of the First World War letters we have in our collection. This letter, sent from the Scottish Churches Huts in France, is dated 14th July 1917 (Ref 1.111 & 3.19) | Beamish Museum

We love how excited everyone is to hear about our Remaking Beamish developments! The project has been progressing well and we thought you might like to watch a video about how our 1950s Front Street terrace has been moving along over the past few weeks and months. Helen Barker, our Assistant Director Engagement Activity & Collections Access, took us on a guided tour a little while ago, through the Front Street terrace exhibits, and chatted to team members about how the work has been progressing.

Visiting today? Make sure you stop to see the impressive model tramway exhibition in our 1950s welfare hall! | Beamish Museum
