I dined at the Mansion House with a large party, assembled in honour of and for the purpose of meeting Mr. Beaumont.   I had not seen Beaumont since the election, but we seemed to be (and I have no doubt were) upon our usual intimate terms.   He conducted himself adroitly and by his chearfulness and good humour pleased his friends and in some degree disarmed his enemies.   My son William accompanied me and he was much amused having never before been at a large public dinner.

The Dukesfield Smelters and Carriers Project aimed to celebrate and discover the heritage of the Dukesfield Arches & lead carriers' routes between Blaydon and the lead mines of Allendale and Weardale. A two year community project, it was led by the Friends of the North Pennines in partnership with Hexhamshire and Slaley Parish Councils and the active support of Allendale Estates. It was funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and the generous support of other sponsors. Friends of the North Pennines: Charity No:1137467
