Arts and Culture

North-East England is a starkly beautiful part of the country, with a deep history that is intimately entwined with the idea of Englishness. A Christian crucible in the early Middle Ages, it later became defined by industry and class. But it is also a hotbed of culture and creativity today. Beating the bounds of the place he calls ‘hyem’, Jake Morris-Campbell invites us to see how and why we need to forge new ways through the old north.
