Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

We visited the Gallery on the recommendation of relatives and we were not disappointed. Not only were the artworks incredible the volunteers were so friendly and informative about the artists, local area history and in particular the mining industry. It was not only a pleasure to listen to them but so interesting and informative. The Gallery is on 2 floors and the top floor is usually dedicated to a temporary exhibition while the ground floor holds the permanent collection. Do not miss the small video show behind red velvet curtains on the ground floor showing a video depicting a young tracker boy down the mine. Get your tissues out. Visiting the Gallery was both an uplifting experience and very moving and a stark reminder of the difficulties and horrors of working in the mines and the past. Even if your not particularly interested in art or history a visit is so worth it. Cannot recommend highly enough.

We had limited time here today so spent about 45 minutes looking around. The main exhibition doesn't seem to change but it is always a tremendous pleasure to come here and a highlight of visiting County Durham.

Well worth the very specific detour on a long drive home! I read about this gallery some time ago and was thrilled to be able to visit. An incredible gallery with an amazing collection of art. Many different styles. It was very moving and brought it all to life. The volunteers (30th August) were so helpful and knowledgeable. They managed to bring the art, artists and mining life and communities to life for me. This was particularly special for me and something I’m very grateful for. Among the best volunteers I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet, thank you.

I can't really add much to the reviews already here, since this is a remarkable gallery full of moving works of art which is thoroughly worth the £6 entrance fee, and more. My only sorrow was that whilst photography was forbidden so few postcards of the art on view were for sale since I wanted to take the images away to think about and continue to value them, particularly Orgreave after Guernica by Bob Olley, but others too. If you love art and history this gallery is a must.

You might think that a museum devoted to works of art created by coal miners might be dominated by amateur and unskilled work. How wrong you would be! The work on display is often excellent; moreover, considering the history of mining in the 20th Century during which thousands of miners were killed and the industry was eventually destroyed, frequently intensely moving. In particular, a new work on display copies Picasso's "Guernica" to depict the conflict between striking miners and the police. In many works the brutal conditions in which these men (and sometimes children) worked are shown without dramatisation, and contrasts are made with the "Gala" days in which working-class solidarity is celebrated. If you're a Conservative voter you might not appreciate what is shown, but you cannot deny its truth. A wonderful experience.

If you visit Bishop Auckland I would highly recommend a visit. Knowledgable and helpful staff. Beautiful paintings with an added exhibition relating to the miners strike. Very moving. I particularly liked the Tom McGuiness paintings.

A remarkable museum, small but full of absolute gems. The Orgreave riot after the style of Guernica (temporary exhibition, sadly), is a minor masterpiece. Well worth a visit, as is Bishop Auckland generally

The staff are so friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. This is a superb part of the well planned Auckland Project.
The art is very moving and well displayed.
We will be back again later in the year to visit the other parts of the project; we will be bringing friends.

I'm thinking of coming to visit .
I live in Manchester but previous generations of my family come from Springwell Village and thereabouts. Do you have material on Springwell Village?
What is the nearest railway station?
many thanks
