In October 1918 a time capsule was placed under the Lambton Park memorial gates at the ceremonial laying of the foundation stone.  One hundred years later, Newcastle Council extracted the time capsule on 26th September 2018. A celebration will be held in Lambton Park on Saturday 20th October 2018 to reveal the contents of the old time capsule, and to bury a new time capsule, to be opened one hundred years from now in 2118.
