Britain's What's On Event Guide
Cherryburn
Heritage Open Day: Discover the birthplace of famous artist, engraver and naturalist Thomas Bewick, nestled in the Tyne Valley. This unassuming Northumbrian farmstead is the birthplace of famous artist and naturalist Thomas Bewick.
Bewick is perhaps Northumberland’s greatest artist: a wood engraver and naturalist who revolutionised print art in Georgian England. Set in a tranquil, accessible garden with views across the Tyne Valley, Cherryburn is surrounded by the natural world that inspired his work.
Discover his birthplace cottage and farmyard with glorious views over the Tyne Valley, plus a traditional 19th century farmhouse - the later home of the Bewick family, now a museum - with an unrivalled collection of his work and an exhibition about his life.
