Section 7: Bardon Mill to Featherstone Rowfoot
We pick up the trail again at Bardon Mill by first visiting the pottery. Heading down Station Road, we pass the site of an old corn mill before cutting through the station and across the Tyne once more, following our route into Bardon Mill from section 6. However, once across the Tyne, we turn left and head Westwards towards Willimoteswick, once the ancestral seat of the Ridley Family and one of two contenders for the birth place of Bishop Ridley (one of the Oxford martyrs).

Following a very muddy farm track we eventually skirt the banks of the South Tyne in order to avoid some noisy cows with calves blocking the path. Eventually we make it to Unthank Hall, another contender for the birth place of Bishop Ridley. We follow the country road and cross the A69 onto the Haltwhistle viaduct (also known as the Alston Arches). The viaduct once formed part of the Haltwhistle to Alston branch line. We continue along the old branch line before doubling back on ourselves by the river to view the arches from underneath.

After we headed into Haltwhistle to check out what the Centre of Britain has to offer. Leaving Haltwhistle via the station and across another footbridge over the South Tyne, we head to the haunted castle of Bellister. The castle is owned by the National Trust but is rented out and thus not open to the public. We follow the road up the hill and join the branch line once more which takes us to Featherstone Rowfoot and the Wallace Arms.
