The Seaham Blue Plaque Heritage Trail (Routes A and B) and Durham Heritage Coast – Seaham Trail take you on a journey past many points of interest, spectacular coastal views and buildings that will enrich your understanding of Seaham’s remarkable history. An ideal way to start that journey is to follow the route of the commemorative blue plaques that have been erected on buildings of historical significance.
