Howick Northumberland Map

About Howick

Howick sleeps softly on the Northumberland coast, a quiet gathering of stone under a wide sky. It lies 8.5 km east-north-east of Alnwick (from Alnwick: bearing 57°T, OS grid NU 258 177), and is situated south of Craster village. The air here often carries the tang of salt from the North Sea, a constant reminder of its proximity to the elemental forces of the ocean. Fields, a rich, dark loam, stretch inland, their green contours catching the pale northern light, hinting at generations of patient cultivation. The village itself, a scattering of sturdy houses, seems to absorb the muted colours of the landscape, its quietude a balm against the world's clamour. A gentle incline leads towards the coast, where the land finally surrenders to the sea's embrace.
