Dist:0.2km<br/>The party stopped and looked at me. They knew I couldn't resist the stepping stones, which are well-set and evenly spaced concrete pipes filled with concrete to give a rough non-slip surface.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Deep cutting on disused line as the track leaves the former terminus station at Rothbury and runs east along the right bank of the Coquet. The railway line used to run from Rothbury to Scots Gap but passenger services ceased in September 1952

Dist:0.3km<br/>Well, what would you do with it? On a par with Compo's question "How do you get marmalade off a ferret?" On Station Road, Rothbury.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Just downstream of Thrum Mill is The Thrum, a shallow gorge where the River Coquet passes through an area of harder rocks that have resisted the river's erosion. The Thrum is apparently called after the noise that the river makes through this area.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This turbine is next to the disused Cragside power station. It was brought here from Netherton Farm, one of many farms that William Armstrong owned in the area, where it had been used to power farm machinery. (From the information board).

Dist:0.6km<br/>Relax, nothing to do with dentistry. I think this is the erection of a temporary bridge in preparation for restoration of the main bridge (see here: [[[1513500]]]).
