Description: | Stagecoaches were the main means of transport over long distances for people and mail in the 18th and early 19th centuries. The horses were changed at stagecoach inns along the route. However, stagecoaches were relatively expensive, and poorer people had to walk or get a ride with a carrier's cart. Stagecoaches ran from Newcastle to Edinburgh and York. George Richardson was working as an artist by the age of fourteen. He was the first son of the Newcastle painter Thomas Miles Richardson, Senior. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement artists living in the North East watercolours other North East transport art North East artists people | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
