Deep Dive Urban Safari - Wearside

Cities don't start with their castles and cathedrals. They start with the people who build them.

Deep Dives is a concept by the North East Heritage Library to take historical walks away from the grandeur and into the nitty gritty. Sports, industry, utilities and street furniture all feature in this series of informal walks which aim to capture the imagination and to take a second glance at the history we might not catch first time.

You will receive a free colour coded guide, which will supplement our walk with maps and photographs to really gain an insight into our surroundings.
