Blyth Battery Goes to War - 2023

The Battery at Blyth has stood guard at the mouth of the river Blyth in Northumberland for more than a century. It’s an impressive array of buildings that acted as a lookout, armaments, storage and an assembly point during World War 1, the Battery also boasted two six-inch guns for coastal defense.
This weekend, May 20 & 21, the Battery hosted two days of exciting historical activities and reenactments when it presented Blyth Battery Goes to War.
