Places of interest in Consett, DH8
CastlesideCastleside is a village in County Durham, in England. It is situated a short distance to the south-west of Consett. The village centre is located on the main A68 road which runs between Edinburgh and Darlington and the village crossroads allow easy access to Consett, the North Pennines and Stanhope. To the northeast lies another small village called Moorside.Alnwick CastleSpecial exhibitions are housed in three of the castle's perimeter towers. The Postern Tower, as well as featuring an exhibition on the Dukes of Northumberland and their interest in archaeology, includes frescoes from Pompeii, relics from Ancient Egypt and Romano-British objects. Constable's Tower houses military displays like the Percy Tenantry Volunteers exhibition, local, volunteer soldiers raised to repel Napoleon's planned invasion in the period 1798?1814. The Abbot's Tower houses the Regimental Museum of the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers.Hulne PrioryThe public is admitted to Hulne Park, but it is not marketed as a visitor attraction and has no visitor facilities. The ruins of the priory may be viewed, but Brizlee Tower is not open to the public.Northumberland Fusiliers MuseumThe Northumberland Fusiliers Museum is a museum located within the Abbot's Tower of Alnwick Castle in Alnwick, Northumberland, England.Houghton-le-SpringIn 1311, the village was owned by Albreda, widow of Lord Henry Spring, hence the addition of 'le spring'. The above explanation of the addition of ?le Spring? is debatable and there are alternatives. One opinion is that it is derived from the Le Spring family, Lords of Houghton in ancient times. Another explanation, which is backed up by a "Regester Booke belonginge to the Paryshe of Houghton in the Springe" from 1598,[4] is based around the medicinal springs which flow from the surrounding limestone rocks. This latter explanation ties in with the Roman names in the area in which "le" is taken to be "in the" as in Chester-le-Street, Witton-le-Wear, Dalton-le-Dale, Hetton-le-Hole.[5] Credence is added to this consideration by the area of the town formerly known as the Lake and the stream/spring that nowadays still runs through the centre of the town, although this has long since been directed to run through a culvert.Information by Wikipedia.com
