Join me for a walk around the small but historically fascinating village of Corbridge. Located on the banks of the River Tyne in South Northumberland, Corbridge is a delightful place to visit, and home to history from over two millennia, including Roman ruins, a medieval tower, an impressive 17th-century bridge and many delightful and quaint houses.
As we walk around Corbridge, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including the River Tyne, Corbridge Bridge, The Angel of Corbridge Inn, Middle Street, The Black Bull pub, Corbridge Market Place, St. Andrew's Church, Corbridge Market Cross, Corbridge Library, Corbridge Town Hall and more!

I visited Corbridge because my love for everything Roman took me to Hadrian's Wall. I had no idea what to expect and was immediately charmed. What a lovely little village, what amazing history! If you plan on visiting the area, take a day to experience the charm of Corbridge. Thank you for this video and the history lesson! Greatly appreciated!

It would be wonderful indeed! I'd love to make a video on every city, town and village in the world - but as you say there just isn't time sadly :( But still, I do love making these videos, and I'm so glad to hear that you enjoy watching them - it really means a lot! Thank you so much for watching - I do hope you get the chance to visit a few of these lovely places for yourself in the future :)

We visited the Roman town a few years ago, well worth a detour.

It certainly is! It's amazing to think that this town was once linked to the heart of Rome thousands of miles away - as the northernmost frontier of that great empire :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!

Oh my God. This has brought tears to my aged eyes. I have asked my sister that, upon my demise, my ashes are scattered at Corbridge, she lives in Forest Hill London, London is where i come from. Found Corbridge because of my love of Roman history which my ex wife couldn't comprehend. It is without doubt a beautiful part of the UK that gladdens me. Love all about Northumberland, even the folks are welcoming and warm. What a marvellous video, thank you so much.

Try a Walk around Hexham in October...watch the salmon jumping up the wier under the bridge over the Tyne at Hexham.

I've got a winter walk coming up on this channel from Hexham - but I'll make sure to head back when the salmon are springing out of the water :)

It's such a gorgeous village - extremely peaceful and with some amazing scenery just a few steps out of the centre, I'm sure you have great memories of Corbridge and I hope you get the chance to return for a visit or a move back in the future :) Thank you so much for watching - I hope you enjoyed the video!

Interesting knowing that Romans settled thus north. Romans they were, but probably not from Rome, since soldiers serving in the north, were in largest part from other provinces of the Empire. At Castlecary on the Antonine wall, at a carved register, they identified themselves as coming from Noricum (Austria) and few from Italy ( Roman centurions, Raffaele D´Amato). One more refined video by Let´s Walk.

Thank you so much! Corbridge really is a fascinating little village - with so much history and the fact that it was so significant thousands of years ago, especially for an Empire with its headquarters thousands of miles to the south!

Elegant and picturesque village by the Tyne, do you know If Salmons swim upstream the river tyne?

@LetsWalkUK 3 жыл бұрын

It's so picturesque, isn't it? I really love Corbridge, and in answer to your question - I've found out that the Tyne is actually the best river in England for salmon numbers, while other rivers like the Tweed are also good for salmon :) Thank you for watching and commenting as always - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!

Hmm... Four pubs within a ten minute walk? Sounds like my kind of town!

Absolutely! It may be small but there's a whole lot to Corbridge - and there's more time spent in pubs than walking between them :) Thanks for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!
