Twizell (Duddo)


Twizell was a large estate during medievel times located by the River Till in Northumberland, in what is today the civil parish of Duddo. There is evidence of a deserted medievel village at Twizell[1]. The estate was focussed around Twizel Castle and an earlier medieval tower house on that site. Twizell Bridge, built in 1511, is associated with the Battle of Flodden, 1513.

Not to be confused with Twizell (Whalton), or Twizell (Adderstone with Lucker), both are also in Northumberland.
