• Researchers increasingly embrace co-production as fundamental to knowledge-building about local history(ies) and heritage(s); community insights must be encompassed in professional reports, interpretation and, ideally, publication. This chapter reports on fieldwork and related story-mapping I undertook with members of a community in the northeast of England—the Sunderland suburb of Ryhope, once a colliery (coal mine) settlement in its own right. When a local museum decided to relocate an iconic cinema/bingo hall to a recreated 1950s setting, the museum and residents expressed an interest in celebrating local stories and memories of Ryhope that went beyond the materiality of the building itself. The underlying aim was to reanimate the rich vernacular and creative spirit of the Northeast, beyond the deindustrialized ‘ex-coal mining’ canon by which the area is mainly known.
