England's highest market town boasts
potters, blacksmiths, wood turners, furniture makers, knitters,
candle makers, rug makers and a mustard manufacturer.
Old stone buildings cling to the sides
of cobbled streets, narrow lanes lead to secret passageways. You
will also come across the unexpected - a 21 foot diameter water
wheel, a mill race running through the town, the start of the South
Tynedale narrow gauge railway, antique shops, craft galleries and
artists galore.
The town is an ideal starting point for
many walks, some taking in part of the Pennine Way -- and you can
even go skiing in winter. |
