Section 31: Chillingham Castle to Quarry House
Filmed in June 2021. I start with a quick discussion of the wild cattle of Chillingham as I follow the road to the remains of a Medieval tower house. In the nearby woods I discover a bronze age burial site and visit a large boulder that is a favourite of rock climbers. Leaving the woods, I call by a quaint little church before reaching an iron hill fort with a difference making it unique in Northumberland. I explore a WWII pillbox and neolithic rock carvings before reaching one of the highlights of the walk, a bronze age grave site that's over 4,000 years old. A visit to an abandoned farmhouse where I explore its impressive crags before reaching a mysterious set of steps in the middle of the moors that descend into the earth. Finally finishing the section at Quarry House.

A really good episode, beautiful locations, so much fascinating history brought to life by your obvious knowledge of the subject. And so brave going all the way into the tunnel. Really enjoyed this stage of the Grand tour with you Alice.
Thank you. I really enjoyed walking this one. I picked the right time of year to walk it with the rhododendrons out in bloom making the views incredible.
Really enjoyed this one Alice, a really top leg of the tour and June though warm looked like the time to do it also. Some cracking little places along this one. Difficult to remember the others but this is def up there as one of my favs. Great stuff, cheers.
Definitely walk this one in June, the rhododendrons really added to the walk. The views were incredible. Thank you.
What can I say about this part of the journey. Loved the church stone circles the ruin of the farm. Amazing scenery. Many thanks
It was a really nice walk this one, it took me by surprise at how stunning the views were from the fort and the level of history. Thank you for watching.
