Days of special interest are back!

A new attraction has just opened in Northumbria - Ad Gefrin

Welcome to The Gefrin Trust


I am planning a visit, but as Ad Gefrin is currently expected to open later this month, I want to check it out first, which I hope to do within a couple of weeks of the opening. So, I should have more definite information for the next meeting.

Ad Gefrin is situated near Wooler in Northumberland, close to the Iron Age hill fort of Yeavering, which was a royal court in the 7th century. The attraction will include an Anglo-Saxon museum, with artefacts from the excavations at Yeavering and precious objects on loan from the British Museum and the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, as well as a re-creation of a Great Hall. In addition, it is the site of the first legal whisky distillery opened in England for over a century, with guided tours and tastings." There is also a new whisky distillery on site! Here is a website for more more information: https://adgefrin.co.uk/ At this moment we are collecting expressions of interest. if you are interested please send your details to Della Kerr: Tel: 01325 721458 Email: dellakerr@tiscali.co.uk 9 Hurworth Road, Hurworth Place, Darlington, DL2 2DG
