Description

Northumberland is synonymous with the great Northern saints of St Cuthbert, St Oswald and St Aidan. Two long-distance pilgrim paths, St Cuthbert’s Way and St Oswald’s Way, link the locations associated with all three of them, leading to and from Holy Island, also known as Lindisfarne. In this book Andy Bull, who has been researching Britain’s pilgrim paths for many years explores these and many other pilgrim routes in Northumberland and the historic places and people associated with them. St Cuthbert’s Way runs through the Northumberland National Park and the Cheviot Hills and St Oswald’s Way runs from Holy Island up the coast past Bamburgh to Hadrian’s Wall. Other pilgrim routes and locations include St Wilfrid’s Way from Hexham to Scotland, Inner Farne, the Kyloe Hills inland from Berwick, Holystone near the Border and more.

Northumberland's Pilgrim Routes: A History of Paths, Places and People will appeal to all those who enjoy walking and exploring Britain’s heritage. Through this book readers and walkers today can explore the full breadth of Northumberland’s rich pilgrim history and the fascinating history to be discovered en route.
