Heritage Open Days - Tees Valley

11-14th September

Heritage Open Days celebrates England's fantastic architecture and culture by offering free access to properties that are usually closed to the public or normally charge for admission. Every year on four days in September, buildings of every age, style and function throw open their doors, ranging from castles to factories, town halls to tithe barns, parish churches to Buddhist temples. It is a once-a-year chance to discover hidden architectural treasures and enjoy a wide range of tours, events and activities which bring to life local history and culture.

Free of charge and literally on people's doorstep, Heritage Open Days is an event for everyone, whatever their background, age and ability.

With over 22 properties taking part in Tees Valley this year there is something for everyone, highlights include Head of Steam, Ormesby Hall, Power Boat Trips, Roller Skating and even climbing the famous Transporter Bridge !
