Woodhorn Colliery Museum is situated in a country park with a 40-acre (16 ha) lake. With sound effects, models, paintings, working machinery etc, the museum gives an insight into life in a local coal mining community.
The site of the old pit is now the location for Northumberland Record Office, a purpose built building having been constructed to replace the two previous buildings at Morpeth and Gosforth.
