We travelled upto beamish on a coach trip from sheffield. On arriving there was a little bit of chaos of us entering with a few coach parties all entering at once.

When you get into the place there is a stop where you can catch a tram round to the other end of the village. However one look at the queue we decided to walk instead.

The first thing we came across was the tramway garages where you could look from the outside at the trams inside.

The second section we came across was a small funfair. This contained a few small rides for children such as a merrygo round and swingboats. There was also a few side stalls such as cocount shy.

Next to small fair ground was the train station which had a train in. From here we crossed over the foobridge and made our way to the small village.

The village was my favourite part of the museum. Here was a street containing a dentist, hardware shop and writers which you could look round. Also in the village was a pub, sweet shop and printers which were all open. We sampled the dandelion and burdock and lemmonade from the pub which we enjoyed. From the sweet shop I bought some strawberry bon bons and a bar of chocolate. There were plenty of sweets to choose from and these were weighed out in front of you. Hoever the shops in the village could be busy. There was also a small park area which contained a bandstand.

When we finally moved on from the village we came across the mining pit area. From here we donned a hard hat and had a quick tour of an underground pit. After this we had a look around the cottages that the miners used to live in.

Finally we made our way to the shop. This had a range of different things and I bought a very nice drinking chocolate from here.

After the shop we made our way to the coach and headed back to sheffield.
