Quaint little villages like
Morpeth provide fun day trips as well as opportunities to shop. Known as the town that launched the Arnott's Biscuits Brand, Morpeth has another treasure lurking in the back streets: a peculiar Curiosity
Sale. The sale
tables are littered with cheap gems complete with historical tales about the objects, or who owned them. Written
by the crew of old
ladies and
men who work there, this curiosity sale has charm in spades. I'm told the first Sunday of the month is the time to go.
