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.
