Parish in Focus: Bewick, Northumberland

The Civil Parish is the lowest tier of local government and many of the parishes in Northern England have boundaries and interesting histories relating to the ancient townships of long ago. Typically they have an enduring sense of place and community.

Northumberland Bewick is a civil parish in Northumberland, located about 10 miles north-west of Alnwick. It is sparsely populated, with the population mostly concentrated in the east side of the parish, in the hamlets of Old Bewick and New Bewick. The west of the parish includes the rugged terrain of Bewick Moor and hill ranges. It has several prehistoric sites, including Bronze Age cairns and Iron Age hillforts (see: historic sites). The River Breamish flows through the parish, and south of Bewick Bridge, it becomes known as the River Till.
