Hexham: Cockshaw Burn and Tanners Row

  • Description

    "This area was once the site of Hexham's tanning industry. The fast-flowing waters of the two burns were used in the preparation of the hides. The old house to the right, above the green paling fence, is Holy Island House: part of its much grander facade is shown in http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2810121." Photo by John Sutton, 2012.
