After services in each of the churches there were about 300 people on Coates Green. A large wooden cross was brought out of St Mary’s, and raised on the Green. The story from the Bible was read and two hymns were sung. The Vicar - the Reverend Peter Barham - commented that no-one who was at the crucifixion would believe that, 2,000 years later in a village north of the Roman Empire, Christians were sharing their faith.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.

    Parish Clerk’s Report 6-28 February, 2008 Item 3a Damage to seat at Mill Corner: At the time of writing I have nothing further to report on this matter. I hope I will be able to speak to the haulage contractor before the meeting. Item 3c Munro’s buses: Since the last meeting I have spoken to the Parish Clerks to Belsay, Capheaton, Kirkwhelpington and Rochester in an attempt to gather documentary evidence to submit to Northumberland County Council. They all support Otterburn’s effort to have a bigger bus used on the Jedburgh-Newcastle route. We have agreed that I will produce posters seeking information from the public and will co-ordinate the responses. Items 3e Grants to local organisations: Since the last meeting I have received acknowledgements from First Responders, Tynedale CAB (which has dealt with 6 Otterburn residents in the last year) and the Friends of Bellingham Surgery. All are grateful for the donations received. I await an acknowledgement from Woodchips. Item 3f Tynedale Visitor: The following was prepared at the request of the Hexham Courant: ‘THE village of Otterburn is at the heart of Redesdale, a remote upland valley steeped in history and blessed with natural beauty. The Percy Cross stands in the midst of a small plantation, a mile north of the village. Near this peaceful spot, on an August evening in 1388, an English army of 8,000 men followed Sir Henry Percy into battle against the Scots, led by the Earl of Douglas. The battle of Otterburn ended in an English rout.
