Hareshaw Ironworks may have turned our little market town of Bellingham into a major industrial centre - if only the railway had arrived fifteen years earlier. Iron ore was successfully produced for ten years but was too expensive to transport to market, and the ironworks closed in 1848. The remains of the ironworks can still be seen on the scenic walk to our waterfall at Hareshaw Linn. Why not plan a visit to Bellingham and a visit to the Heritage Centre and Tea on the Train?

Open daily from 10.00am – 4.00pm

☕ The scones are in the oven…
But how will you eat yours? 👀
Did you know that traditionally scones were broken, not cut?
It wasn’t Victorian fussiness — it was good manners.
Knives were for meals.
Afternoon tea was about:
✨ company
✨ conversation
✨ taking your time
Breaking a scone said:
“I’m here for tea — not hunger.”
Cutting it in half?
Too efficient.
Too sandwich-like.
Far too eager. 😄
By breaking it:
🍓 Jam and cream were added slowly
🫖 Each bite was enjoyed
💬 And conversation came first
A small knife was allowed — but only for the toppings.
So if your scone falls apart in your hands today, you’re doing it the proper way 😉
How do you eat yours — break or cut? Luxury by tradition, tea by the pot, prices by the people!
