Description
Rothbury Railway
A lovely couple visit Northumberland every year for their two week holiday and join us for walks whilst they are here.
The Rothbury Railway walk is a lovely walk starting in the heart of Rothbury. We walk out of Rothbury and join the railway path, where the old station used to be. We follow this path all the way up to Pauperhaugh.
