West Thirston Dip

Highlight • Viewpoint

West Thirston on the south side of Felton is the start of an up and down section ahead. It might be a struggle for some road bikes with high gearing, but passable with effort to many

NCN1 doesn't actually follow the 'main' road through Warkworth, although it's easy to assume it does - and the village itself is worth visiting. But this little spot - on the actual signed route, down by the river - has a few benches, and is a lovely place to take a break.

Warkworth Castle

Highlight • Castle

Lying atop a steep hilltop above the river Croquet, Warkworth Castle is an impressive fortress with towered walls that remain largely intact. Built in the 12th century, the castle had famous owners such as the Percy family who were one of the most powerful families in the North at the time. Their son 'Harry Hotspur' was a character in Henry IV by Shakespeare.

Today, you can visit the castle from 10am to 6pm daily. Tickets for adults cost £7.20. The castle also hosts various events such as medieval myths and legends. You can find more information, here: english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/warkworth-castle-and-hermitage
