George Stephenson's Birthplace

Located along the north bank of the River Tyne in the village of Wylam, Northumberland, the cottage is owned by the National Trust and until recently it was open to the public as a historic house museum.

The house also featured exhibits about Stephenson's Rocket, an early steam locomotive.

[3] When George Stephenson was born, in 1781, there would have been four families living in this humble two storey cottage.

[4] The house is accessible by bike and is a 0.4 mi (0.64 km) walk from the nearest car park.
