Gunnerton


Gunnerton is a village in Northumberland, located by Gunnerton Burn, just over 2 miles north-west of Chollerton. During medieval times there was a tower house and a chapel in Gunnerton (both no longer standing). The Church of St Christopher dates from 1899. To the north of the village, by Gunnerton Burn, are the remains of a Norman motte and bailey castle, and a 19th century lime kiln. There is a further lime kiln to the east, by Gunnerton Nick.
