A picturesque landscape of high hills, open moorland, gently rolling farmland and the scenic River Breamish!
BREAMISH VALLEY winds through the Cheviot Hills of north Northumberland, meandering through the Northumberland National Park. Home to a wide range of wildlife, trees and flowers, the ancient landscape also boasts numerous Neolithic and Bronze Age hillforts and burial sites.
As part of the Northumberland International Dark Sky Park, Breamish Valley is a stargazer's paradise: it has the clearest night skies in England!
And being just a few miles from the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty of Northumberland's unspoilt coastline and beaches, there's something for everyone to enjoy!
The first of the Glen and Jack McWilliams’ Border Trail Race Series 2018 took place on Sunday 11 March 2018.
This was a simple point-to-point race, with around 112 runners being transported by coach from Wooler Bus Station to the start location at Ingram.
This poetic outpouring of praise, joy and trust in God is a delightful interpretation of St Luke’s tribute to the Virgin Mary. The rich sounds of over 200 singers and the lustrous, powerful voice of the internationally known mezzo, Hanna-Liisa Kirchin, accompanied by an instrumental ensemble including harpist Janet Bennett, will inspire and move you. Rutter’s inimitable style produces tunes that will still be swirling in your head long after the performance.
Beast from the East? The Siberian Bear? Well…the Swedes are calling it the Snow Cannon.
And so it continues…although the Breamish Valley has now been downgraded from an amber warning to a yellow warning. So, we’re approaching the end of this highly-unusual severe weather event that’s swept across Europe. Phew!
The UK calls it the Beast form the East. The Dutch call it the ‘Siberian Bear’.
Well…whatever you want to call the current unusual weather conditions that are gripping Europe – it’s certainly cold…and the snow is persistent.
