Catton Northumberland Map

About Catton

Catton’s modest presence in Northumberland is a quiet testament to enduring rural life. It lies 12.5 km west-south-west of Hexham (from Hexham: bearing 240°T, OS grid NY 828 579), and is situated north-north-west of Allendale Town village. The landscape around Catton unfolds with a gentle, rolling grace, the fields often holding the low, golden light of late afternoon, a painterly hue that softens the edges of the stone farmsteads. The air here carries the clean scent of damp earth and, in season, the faint, sweet perfume of wildflowers blooming along the hedgerows. Catton itself is a scattering of dwellings, a place where the silence is broken only by the bleating of sheep or the distant call of a curlew, its very essence tied to the unhurried cadence of the surrounding countryside.
