One of 2023's most hotly anticipated museum openings in the UK has announced the date it will throw open its doors to the public.
Ad Gefrin, in Wooler, consists of a museum and visitor centre celebrating the Anglo-Saxon Golden Age, and Northumberland's first ever whisky distillery. It is one of the biggest-ever investments in tourism in the north of the county and has been named as both one of the world's most anticipated museum openings by the Smithsonian Magazine, and one of four Northumberland entries on TimeOut's list of 23 things to do in 2023.
The journey began on co-founders Alan and Eileen Ferguson's kitchen table in 2018, and it's a true family affair with their son Chris taking the role of visitor experience director. The doors will open for the first time on Saturday March 25 2023.
