Medieval Period

Medieval Settlement in Upper North Tynedale

The development of settlement in the upper reaches of the valley has been intensively analysed by Harbottle and Newman (1973, 138-42) and by Charlton (1987, 29-39). Their accounts are largely followed here with some modifications to take account of additional pieces of evidence.
