Having won the Award for Northeast Small Visitor Attraction Of The Year, Killhope museum stands out among the best days out in the north east. Killhope lead mine museum is not just somewhere to indulge the Fred Dibnah in us all! It’s actually a fascinating family day out located in a stunning part of the North Pennines, providing a stark and vivid contrast between the working conditions of those who laboured in Killhope lead mine in bygone years, and the idyllic surroundings that belay the lot of those toiling in its subterranean passages, tunnels and chambers.

A Quality Assured Visitor Attraction, Gold Standard Green Tourism Award and winner of Most Family Friendly Museum, Killhope lead mine museum boasts the largest working water wheel in the North East of England, and hands-on exhibits where visitors can see what it was like to be a Victorian child labourer, donning period costumes and using basic tools to try to mine veins of lead ore from the solid rock.
What’s more, unique among days out in the north east, there’s the chance to follow a guided tour of Park Level Mine, dressed in appropriate garb of Wellington boots and hardhat with lamp, which offers visitors a glimpse into the conditions endured by miners on a daily basis a century and more ago.

Expert guides are on hand to answer your questions and to relate the fascinating history of Killhope mine, and when you feel the need to see sunlight once again, there’s a lovely woodland walk down Sam Squirrel Trail, which features rare red squirrels in their natural habitat. After all that, take a well-earned rest at the Killhope Café and Shop, where you can pick up a souvenir of a memorable family day out in Killhope museum.
