The Heritage centre Yesterday

The arrival of a Mk 1 railway coach at the Heritage Centre at Bellingham on Wednesday 13 April 2011. The coach has made the long journey by road from Okehampton in Devon via Ferrybridge in N. Yorkshire. A second coach will follow later. These coaches will be refurbished and refitted for use as, respectively, extra exhibition/learning space, and a tea-room. Work will be completed by the end of October 2011. The Heritage Centre's "Wannie Line" exhibition will be available semi-permanently on display in the exhibition coach. Funding for this project has been received from the Heritage Lottery Fund and Northumberland Uplands LEADER Programme. The Heritage Group Bellingham is a registered charity, No. 1041300.
