Antiques Roadshow heads to Whitburn
Locals have been invited to raid their attics for household treasures and car boot bargains as a popular BBC TV show heads to the region.
The Antiques Roadshow is coming to Souter Lighthouse, in Whitburn, near Sunderland, on Saturday, July 4.
Experts will be on hand to offer free advice and valuations to all visitors on a range of items.
National Trust, which runs the site, has warned members of the public that a number of site closures will be in place across the weekend.
On Friday, July 3, the cafe will be closed to the public to allow for the events team to set up.
The cafe will then reopen on Saturday but only for Antiques Roadshow ticket holders.
On Friday, the Lower Whitburn Coastal Car Park will be open but the Souter Lighthouse car park will be closed.
On Saturday, both car parks will be closed.
Unfortunately, due to unprecedented demand, tickets are no longer available for this event.
