Old Rookhope Archive: Rookhope Yesterday
The majority of these photographs come from the archives at Beamish, the North of England Open Air Museum. They
demonstrate the industrial processes that were happening in the valley and show life in Rookhope for the farmers,
lead miners, other workers and their families.
It is interesting to compare views of the village with how the same sites look today, as many of the buildings and
features are still recognisable.
You can go back to the archive index, browse the pages listed below or open
a slide show in a pop-up window.
