Alnwick (pronounced ‘Anick’) is a market town in Northumberland. It traces its history back to around 600AD but is perhaps most famous as the location for Alnwick castle, the home of the Earls of Northumberland since 1309.
It is a lovely country market town with a market place; high street and many narrow winding lanes.
It is also a place of surprises with a number of unexpected buildings and objects.
It also boosts one of the best second hand bookshops in the country, located in the old train station
