Nine Sunderland treasures which have made their way to Beamish over the years

There's links to Gilbridge, Roker and Seaham

If it's a blast from Sunderland's past you're after, Beamish Museum is just the job.

We looked through the Echo archives and found all of these Wearside links to the museum.

A branch office of the Echo was opened there and the tourist attraction had a working tram from Fulwell when we paid a visit in 2003.

Have a look and reminisce on Sunderland's great history.
