Explore the heritage of the Ouseburn
Ouseburn Explorer, a lively illustrated book of walks for families in Newcastle's Ouseburn Valley, has been chosen as a finalist for the prestigious BURA Waterways Renaissance Awards.
Produced by the Newcastle Community Heritage Project - a Cultural Partner of the Ambassadors' Network - it puts children firmly in charge of the walks, which all start close to Seven Stories. It's a great new way for visiting families to explore the Ouseburn Valley at their own pace. School parties enjoy using Ouseburn Explorer too, with help from Newcastle Community Heritage Project's Education Officer Alison Stancliffe, based at Ouseburn Farm.
