Prudhoe: Castle 
Description
Located on a hill overlooking the Tyne Valley the castle helped to defend this part of the country during the worst of the wars between the Scots and English. The site has been permanently occupied from Norman times through to the modern day, though much of the castle keep has disappeared when it was used as farm buildings prior to being turned into a manor house in the 19th Century

Getting There
From the centre of Newcastle there are two trains an hour to Prudhoe (they continue to Hexham), taking around 20 minutes. From the station you need to walk up the hill to the castle. If you exit the car park by the road to the left hand side, this takes you up to the main road opposite a flight of stairs that get you most of the way.Latitude: 54.965149; Longitude: -1.858578
