Land of Oak & Iron
The Land of Oak & Iron (LOI) focuses on the Derwent Valley and the surrounding area, following the River Derwent from Derwent Reservoir to the River Tyne, including Consett, Rowlands Gill, Prudhoe and Whickham. This area has a fascinating industrial heritage of pioneering ironworks, steel furnaces and sword making; a beautiful natural heritage of steeply wooded valleys and a rich cultural heritage of rapper dancing, music and arts. The videos on our channel will show local heritage, traditional activities and updates on our ongoing projects.
