Vampire rabbit mystery unravels

Little is known of the significance of the vampire rabbit

A vampire rabbit with long red nails is just one of the bizarre exhibits in a new display charting the history and archaeology of Tyne and Wear.

The rabbit is one of 7,000 archive entries to go live on Tuesday on a new website, which also features long forgotten sports, wars and witchcraft.

Other unusual entries include the 9ft-long skeleton of a Roman soldier found in Fulwell, Sunderland in 1795.

The Sitelines Project is run by Tyne and Wear Museums and Newcastle Council.

The bizarre figure of a fanged rabbit, is above the ornate doorway of solicitors' offices on Amen Corner, behind St Nicholas' Cathedral, in Newcastle.

Lindsay Allason-Jones, director of Archaeological Museums at Newcastle University, said: "'Sadly, very little is known about why the rabbit is there, or what it represents.

"We would love to hear from anyone who can enlighten us."
