Holidays in Hexham

The area and getting around

A small UK market town

Hexham is a town in Northumberland which you will find in the North East of England. It has small population centres such as Corbridge, Riding Mill, Stocksfield and Wylam and is forty kilometres from Newcastle upon Tyne. It is an ancient medieval town with a legal right to hold markets in ancient times, which is why it is even called a market town. One of the things you can't miss on your visit to Hexham is to see the surrounding villages, especially the largest town nearby, Newcastle upon Tyne. Hexham was built on the banks of the River Tyne and came into being with the establishment of a monastery in 674. The Romans had been there before, which is why you can still see the remains of Hadrian's Wall. There are many old buildings: the present cathedral retains the basement of the original monastery, the 11th century building was remodelled in the 19th century, there are old prisons and mock halls, lots to see!

Learn more about Hexham and its historical trail

One of the must-see places in Hexham is the Moot Hall, the name of an ancient public building in Anglo-Saxon England where the elders met to discuss and resolve the problems of the town. Few of these buildings have survived and one of them is in Hexham. You'll learn a lot about the history of the town's many battles in the town centre, mostly explaining why it's never been easy to get so close to the Scottish border. Its historic buildings are the city's greatest treasures, so don't forget to visit them and learn more about them! On one side are the early gothic Hexham Abbey, the covered market built in 1776, the mock courthouse we talked about earlier and the old prison, one of the first prisons built in the country in the 14th century. A good time to visit the town is to see the market on the second and fourth Saturday of every month, one of the best farmers' markets in the UK.
