We recognise in our globally changing world there are many challenges; Government funding cuts, split devolution in the region, impending departure from the European Union and communities in need of uniting, all create a sense of uncertainty for the future. We also know this impacts on the visual arts sector who are working in precarious conditions with lack of organisational and job security which we need to address to ensure it can thrive. However, by diversifying our funding, creating new business models, developing new national and international partnerships and working locally to share resources we still remain positive and continue to innovate, and strongly believe we can continue to do so, creating substantial impact in our region.

Quality will be at the heart of all that we do as artists, organisations and individuals. By meeting the diverse needs of our audiences and communities we will engage them in thought provoking new ideas and perspectives. Our role will be seen as fundamental within society, creating real impact and value for the region. ‘True parity between the diversity of organisations in the North East visual arts sector, a level playing field for organisations of all shapes and sizes to work within, and true collaborative working will ensure the visual arts has the most impact for the region.’ Julie Milne Chief Curator of Art Galleries, Tyne & Wear Archives and Museums Left Laura Lancaster, Montage X, 2015.

  • Bingtale Earnings in 19Th Century Lead Mining
    “Bingtale and Fathomtale - Lead Miners’ Earnings in 19th Century Allendale” Tim Barmby1 (Universities of Aberdeen, Newcastle upon Tyne and North East England History Institute) Paper prepared for Institute of Historical Research workshop on Wage Formation in Early Modern Labour Markets Sept 16th 2016 February 2016 Abstract This paper uses the records of the Beaumont-Blackett lead mining concerns in Allendale to examine the earnings for lead miners in this part of the Northern Pennines for the late 1850’s and early 1860’s. The paper matches two parts of the historical record, the Bargain books and Beaumont-Blackett’s quarterly financial accounts to give a more complete picture of the earnings of this group of workers than has previously been achieved. The paper shows that the distribution of earnings for lead miners has a distinct structure in comparison to coal miners and suggests some motivations for lead miners working decisions. One conclusion that may be drawn is that they were, in essence, prospectors. 1 I would like to acknowledge the help of staff at both the Northumberland and Durham Record offices, and also at the North of England Mining Institute in Newcastle upon Tyne. Particular thanks go to Mrs Liz Bregazzi at the Durham Record Office and Jennifer Kelly and Simon Brookes at the North of England Mining Institute. Ian Forbes and Jessica Finnilä gave significant help in interpretation of the available historical records. I would also like to acknowledge correspondence and discussions with Professor Bernard Jennings. The paper was given at the 2012 Economic History Society Conference at Oxford, I would like to thank participants of the session there as well as seminar audiences at Aberdeen, Glasgow, Flinders, Durham, Lancaster, Maastricht and Newcastle especially Les Reinhorn, Hang Sun and Colin Wren.

    NORTHERN RED SQUIRRELS HELPING OUR REDS STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES Issue 2 www.northernredsquirrels.co.uk Autumn 2008 NORTHERN NEWS Diagnosis of viral infections in the red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) By David Everest, VLA The Veterinary Laboratories Agency‟s (VLA) electron microscopy unit, established in 1965, undertakes analyses in biological samples from many species, with samples submitted by our regional laboratories, other institutes and private veterinary practitioners. An aspect of the work involves the confirmation of viral particles using the negative staining TEM technique. This is particularly used for the diagnoses of viral infections, both squirrel pox and adenovirus in the red squirrel. The technique involves grinding the scab or skin lesions in phosphate buffer, drying a drop of extract onto a support grid, negatively staining it with phosphotungstic acid, and subsequently observing virus particles when examined by TEM. A micrograph (photograph) is taken as a permanent record and we possess both micrograph and negative archives from every positive since 1971. In 1998, the VLA formed its Diseases of Wildlife Scheme, co-ordinated by Paul Duff at our Penrith laboratory, whereby tissue from suspect pox squirrels and other species of British wildlife could be sent for analysis alongside the Institute of Zoology (IOZ) red squirrel surveillance scheme. Excluding most cases from Formby, we have confirmed every case of squirrel pox and adenovirus in the UK, the first pox case being from Norfolk in 1981, with the next ones in 1993 from, Suffolk, submitted by the IOZ. We confirmed isolated cases in 1994, from Cumbria, Durham and from Dorset, resulting from a re-introduction trial and Lancashire and Suffolk in 1995.

The Lead-Mining Districts of the north of England comprise an extensive range of highly picturesque scenery, which is rendered still more interesting by numerous objects which claim the attention of the antiquary, the geologist, and the mineralogist, and, in short, of all who delight in the combined attractions of nature, science, and art. Of these districts no detailed account has been given to the public; and a famihar description of the northern lead-mines, in which so many persons in this part of the kingdom are concerned, has long been a desideratum in local literature. The present volume aspires not to the merit of supplying this want; but, by descriptive notices of the principal objects of attraction, is intended to convey some general ideas of the nature of the lead-mining districts, and to afford some information which may serve as a guide to those who visit them.
