Northumberland is England's most northerly county, offering coastlines and countryside of outstanding beauty, and a rich history dating back to ancient times.
Northumberland's historical monuments date back to Roman times, notably Hadrian's Wall, stretching west from the outskirts of Newcastle Upon Tyne for over seventy miles.
The county boasts some of the most unspoiled coastal stretches in England dotted with monuments such as the medieval Bamburgh castle and the ancient priory on Holy Island.
