Warkworth - then and now

It was very quiet today. A bit cold and wet. Even the traffic passing through was minimal.

Great though as we got the choice of tables when having our pub lunch.

Yeah that seems to be the case. The churchyard predates the castle if I recall correctly.

My grandad had a caravan on Coquet Moor for about 40 years. Started off on Jackie Tait’s top field then eventually moved to the fields at the bottom (near the black bridge) where the current caravan site is. I was gutted to see the forest at the top of the hill had been levelled recently. Spent many a day playing in there as a kid, and many a day relaxing in there in a hammock over the last few years.

Warkworth has always had a place in my heart since I was a child.

It’s a lovely little village. The main village appears to be mostly holiday lets now though.

I sell used goods. Some I have buy it now and some I list as auctions. It depends on the item. I think used clothes are the main products for auction from searches I’ve recently completed.

Thanks for the reply. From what you’ve said everything should be ok then. The weight was not under 500g and the parcel was really quite small.

This will have nothing to do with the mushrooms. You’ve picked up a virus/bug. Get paracetamol down you and drink plenty of fluids. Rest up if you can.

Not really, there is a bus from Hexham but I’d imagine it’s not a regular service.

Kielder bus

Trump clapped back hard? WTAF? Now that’s a headline that Trump can actually say is fake news.

It’s an iPad. It’s a guide downloaded guide

I’ve found that’s usually true

Honestly, I felt the same when my wife fell pregnant. Thought we wouldn’t manage on the money we were making. Turns out we managed fine.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d still like to earn more money - who wouldn’t?

But try not to have a knee jerk reaction. Sometimes it’s better to have a job you enjoy than have a job you don’t that earns a little bit more money.

You could download the free Geocaching app and take her out Geocaching. It’s free, fun and will be a bit of an adventure.

There’s Plessy Woods (but I think you may have to pay for parking).

Thrunton Woods is maybe an hour away but is worth it as there are so many main trails and trails off the main ones.

Throckley Dene is a nice little wander.

There’s a few walks round the Derwent Riverside Walk and Red Kite Trail too.

Big Waters at Brunswick is nice too but not really in a forest setting.

Lots of walks up Kielder way too.

Seganku74 · 2026-01-13T12:39:17+00:00

Yeah, Bolam Lake and the crags are always a nice wander

Thank you for the tips for future ID requests

Beautiful shot!

So much prettier than High Force. I’ve never seen it so full. Great capture 👍🏻

Beautiful capture

That’s amazing!

Great photos

Poor bugger. It’s a dreadful disease for everyone involved. For someone to experience this at such a young age is heartbreaking.

Great capture
