Character can also draw on more abstract notions such as sounds, local environmental conditions and historical changes. These things combine to create a locally distinctive sense of place worthy of protection. Haydon Bridge Conservation Area was designated in March 1995 in response to the clear historic and architectural significance of the village. The collection of eleven listed buildings in the conservation area, which includes thirty two dwellings in two groups, is testimony to its heritage importance.

  • Henshaw & Bardon Mill Parish Councils
    HENSHAW & BARDON MILL PARISH COUNCILS Summary of A69 Road Safety Campaign Over the past 5 years, Henshaw Parish Council and Bardon Mill Parish Council, have been actively campaigning for comprehensive road safety improvements on the stretch of A69 from the eastern Bardon Mill junction to the western end of Henshaw. This has involved numerous meetings with Highways England, countless emails and letters to Highways England and Roadlink, and a resident’s survey which was submitted to Highways England, Roadlink and the Police – most of which have been met with negativity and often a lack of any response. The case put forward by the Parish Councils is as follows, ‘There are 10 road junctions and 7 unprotected public footpaths, rights of way, and crossings along a relatively short section of road and we are not aware of any similar situation on the A69 (or in fact Northumberland). Whereas the A69 bypasses all the other main towns along its route it actually physically divides our community. In the examples where it does pass through areas, such as Low Row and Warwick Bridge, there are numerous road safety measures such as speed cameras, speed restrictions, and protected crossings/junctions. The west end of Hexham has a junction onto the A69, with a junction to Warden opposite (similar to Tow House/Bardon Mill) and this has dedicated protected turns, long approach/slip roads and a mid point pedestrian island. To take the issue of the motorist first, it is incredibly dangerous for the driver to either access or leave the A69 safely. Most of the road junctions are the original outdated design and are poorly lit and signposted.

  • Gilsland Village Plan Steering Group Members
    GILSLAND VILLAGE PLAN and ACTION PLAN Incorporating Waterhead, Thirlwall and Upper Denton Prepared by The Gilsland Village Plan Steering Group MARCH 2006 WHAT IS A PARISH PLAN? Consultation and collaboration with rural communities has been one of the underlying principles of recent Government policy. Between March 2001 and March 2004, the Countryside Agency ran a demonstration project giving 1,000 rural communities the resources to produce a Parish Plan. The purpose of a Parish Plan is to set out a vision for how a community wants to develop and what actions the community believe need to be taken. Gilsland, in collaboration with Brampton were two of the Parishes that undertook to produce a Plan. The Brampton Area Parish Plan was produced in June 2005 and covered the parishes of Brampton, Burtholme, Castle Carrock, Farlam, Hayton, Irthington, Nether Denton and Upper Denton in the county of Cumbria. Based on information gained from surveys, locally based research and consultation with local groups and residents, the contents of this Parish Plan relate directly to Gilsland, Waterhead, Thirlwall and Upper Denton and is referred to as the Village Plan. In addition to reporting what the people of Gilsland think is needed for the future, this Plan is also action based and gives a clear direction in terms of what actions are going to be taken, with whom and by when. View of Gilsland 2 THE PARISH OF GILSLAND AND SURROUNDING AREAS Willowford Roman Bridge Abutment The village of Gilsland lies on the border between the counties of Cumbria and Northumberland, just off the main A69 road and roughly halfway between Carlisle and Hexham.

This is Reiver country, Hadrian’s Wall country - steeped in folklore and history. The hills and moors surrounding Beltingham are ancient, open, unspoilt and renowned for their wild beauty. The village nestles in an elevated position on the south side of the South Tyne Valley, where there is an altogether softer, more intimate charm, with lovely views to the north. Notwithstanding its rural location, Beltingham is readily accessible. It is approached from both east and west via the A69 road, connecting Newcastle and Carlisle; both cities can be reached by car within forty-five minutes. Just across the river from Beltingham House is Bardon Mill with its rail link to both cities and the east and west coast main lines. Hexham, the local market town, is ten miles to the east and has a full range of shops, services, medical facilities and schooling.
