[edit] Attention needed

Large parts of the article amount to unverified opinion pieces, especially the sections headed

  • Battles for a separate council
  • Coquet High School
  • The Skate Park
  • The division between rich and poor

I have removed all of the non encylopedic stuff - anything that fits Wikipedia critieria can be added back from history. 81.132.91.140

[edit] Alnwick station?

In the section about railways it says that the railway 'runs via the nearby Alnmouth for Alnwick Station'. The station in Hipsburn is Alnmouth station, the station in Alnwick closed decades ago. Have I misunderstood this sentence or is it just wrong?--Jcvamp 17:19, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Alnmouth station was officially renamed "Alnmouth for Alnwick", for some reason, a year or so back. AndrewMcQ 23:34, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Oh, I didn't realise. That's kind of stupid. Thanks.--Jcvamp 18:30, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Friendliest Port

I'm going to alter the statement so it simply' says where it comes from. I believe the statement at the moment is raising questions rather than providing information which is what Wikipedia is about. We need to find a source to confirm exactly what Mauritania radioed to Amble, also I would doubt they would use the word 'kindliest' considering its not a word in the english language according to the Oxford English Dictionary. Furthermore the statement about Berwick being the last port in England is taking the statement out of context. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.38.67.211 (talk) 10:59, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
