Hetton Steads


Hetton Steads is a hamlet in Northumberland, located near the village of Holburn, and just under 5 miles north-east of Wooler.

"HETTON township, 5 miles NNE. of Wooler, extends along the west side of the Hetton bourn, which rises on the north side of this parish, and runs southward to the Till, opposite to Fowberry: it contains the small hamlets called Hetton, Hetton Law, Hetto Steads, Coal houses, and Crook-houses. A good bridge was erected a few years ago by subscription over the Hetton bourn, where the ford was often dangerous. HETTON House, 3/4 miles ENE. of Wooler, is a farm and township, on the south side of the Till, opposite to Fowberry." (History, Directory, and Gazetteer, of the Counties of Durham and Northumberland, 1828)
