Category: Places Of Interest

There are several locations in the North-East of England that are of interest to people who collect glass. It is understandable that places will promote themselves highly to encourage people to visit, however this can lead to disappointment when a planned excursion does not live up to the hype. This section gives a brief review of the places I have visited, which I hope will prepare other potential visitors by providing them with realistic expectations.
