Consistent with its aim it is intended to establish a permanent exhibition within the Centre, comprising appropriate artwork, information boards, photographic displays and an array of exhibits supplemented by comprehensive on-line accessibility. A central feature of the exhibition will be the display of the century old banner of the Bishop Auckland Branch of the\u00a0National Union of Railwaymen. This evocative 10 ft by 9 ft oil painted double sided silk standard is one of only three railway banners still known to exist.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/123-3B-63433-BISHOP-AUCKLAND-copy.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-200 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/123-3B-63433-BISHOP-AUCKLAND-copy-300x233.jpg\" alt=\"123-3B 63433 BISHOP AUCKLAND copy\" width=\"300\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/123-3B-63433-BISHOP-AUCKLAND-copy-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/123-3B-63433-BISHOP-AUCKLAND-copy-1024x794.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/123-3B-63433-BISHOP-AUCKLAND-copy.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Q6 passing through Bishop Auckland in 1955, photograph courtesy of the Armstrong Trust.<\/p>\n<h6>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/banner.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-205 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/banner-300x127.jpg\" alt=\"banner\" width=\"300\" height=\"127\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/banner-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/banner.jpg 660w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/h6>\n<p>Bishop Auckland Station Branch Banner of the National Union of Railwaymen showing both sides.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/4clocks2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-210 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/4clocks2-300x208.png\" alt=\"4clocks2\" width=\"300\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/4clocks2-300x208.png 300w, https:\/\/www.fourclockscentre.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/4clocks2.png 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Information board detailing Bishop Auckland Station from the Second World War.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Four Clocks Heritage Project is a collaborative venture, between Bishop Auckland&#8217;s Four Clocks Centre and the Auckland Railways Group.\u00a0The aim of the venture is to promote the town&#8217;s heritage links, with a particular focus on its industrial past.
