Chopwell Tyne and Wear Map

About Chopwell

Chopwell, a village in the Gateshead district of Tyne and Wear, North East England, carries the quiet dignity of a place shaped by its past. It lies 5.3 km south-south-east of Prudhoe (from Prudhoe: bearing 153°T, OS grid NZ 119 582), and is situated north of Blackhall Mill village. The land around Chopwell, gently sloping towards the River Derwent, would have echoed with the industry that once defined it, though now a softer green often cloaks these slopes, catching the diffused northern light. A sense of settled habitation pervades Chopwell, where the buildings, some bearing the sturdy practicality of an earlier age, stand in comfortable relation to one another, their brickwork warmed by the rare, bright sun. The spirit of the place, perhaps, is in the enduring quietude that settles after the day's labours, a peaceful breath drawn by the land itself.
