The project focused on the conservation of two gothic arches, ruins of the 17th century Dukesfield smelt mill in Hexhamshire.

To celebrate all their hard work heritage we brewed a beer, Ore’some Ale, which is be available  in pubs along the lead route, currently including the Rose and Crown in Slaley and The Dipton Mill Inn.

Why not see the Arches for yourself? Dukesfield Arches are between Slaley and Whitle Chapel in woodland on the banks of the Devil’s Water in Hexhamshire. OS GR NY 941 580 Nearest postcode NE46 1SG
