Reviews for Woodhorn Museum
A historic former 19th-century coal mine that is now a museum and heritage centre for art and local historic relics.A self-guided walk around the outdoor site with information boards explaining the buildings' use.The cutter is a modern building that houses the local archive, cafe, and an excellent interactive exhibition showcasing life as a miner up until the mine's closure.
Really enjoyed the museum. Sensible price to enter, £13 for two. Interesting info and time warp back to points in time like miners strike etc. Nice play area for kids as well as nice cafe we thought reasonably priced.

A delightful day out at the ex-coal mine museum with so much to see of our now, sadly dead heritage.Not only wile away with cuppa & nibbles after browsing exhibitstake ride on the 2ft gauge railway around the "lake" edge,or even walk the whole circumference,with viewin g seats to rest on, the circa 2 mile pathed walk.
