Greenhead, Northumberland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Greenhead is a small village in Northumberland, northern England. It lies just outside the Northumberland National Park, close to Hadrian's Wall. The village is on the B6318, about 17 miles (27 km) from Chollerford, 3 miles (5 km) from Haltwhistle and 9 miles (14 km) from Brampton along the A69 road. The A69 bypasses the village, but until the 1980s all traffic had to drive through the village. Just to the north of the village is the 12th century Thirlwall Castle, recently opened to the public.
