Good evening! Apologies for the slightly late upload of this walk - I do hope you enjoy it though! Thank you very much too to everybody for over 3,600 subscribers - it's so wonderful to see all of your support :) Now, for some bonus information on Tweedmouth, or more specifically Berwick Rangers, who play at Shielfield Park: In 1967, the Rangers beat Glasgow's Rangers 1-0 in the first round of that year's Scottish Cup. The most famous victory in the club's history, it's said that fans of the Borderers went running through Tweedmouth in celebration, overturning cars and causing havoc! Also, here's a link to the 2014 procession of the Salmon Queen's coronation, it looks like great fun: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hpirw9agc7OYocY.html

Shielfield is also home to Berwick Speedway which operate in the British speedway Championship. A very good and interesting walk ,a town i have visited for over 60 years.

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you found the video an interesting watch - I didn't know that about the Speedway link with Shielfield Park, so thank you very much for pointing that out! It really is quite the multi-purpose venue behind the houses, a hidden gem indeed :)

Great walk in the town of tweedmouth. It's a nice place to visit. Can't wait to see more tomorrow 😀

It is indeed a nice place to visit - and home to some of the unsung history just across the river from one of Britain's most unique towns :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!

Thank you so, so much for these videos that are fantastic watch and learn from. I didn't get to visit north of Leeds when I was studying in the UK. Now you have inspired me with your videos to make time to go back and enjoy these gems of places.

You're welcome! And thank you very much for watching - I certainly know the feeling, I had never been much further north of Leeds for a long while, but the likes of Northumberland are an absolutely wonderful example of the hidden gems the UK has to offer :) I do hope you get the chance to revisit in the future - there are certainly a wealth of places to discover!

That's awesome!. I was born and bred there, you look up the street I grew up on at 9:33. Me and all my family were christened in the church!. I even found out a lot about Tweedmouth I never knew.

Those little colourful cottages are so charming.

They are indeed! Colourful cottages aren't something you see too often, but up near the Scottish border there are a good number of them, another charm of this fascinating region :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!

On the A1068 from Amble to Lesbury you can see Over on your right. Lovely multi coloured cottages on the Aln River at Alnmouth. Might be a Northumberland tradition?

Your information gives life and meaning to any view, great job, thank you

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video - there are so many fascinating things to discover in places like Tweedmouth, though it's often hidden in the vestiges of history - but I love to discover that through making these videos :)

I've very quickly come to realize I can rely on you for fascinating, informative and entertaining videos. I'm learning a heck of a lot about locations I'm familiar with though never have visited. As always, a big thank you.

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos! Like you, I'm learning so much about the local histories of places I've visited in the past or heard of in passing, it's amazing just how much heritage there is the deeper you look into the country :) Thank you so much for watching as always and for your very kind words - it always makes my day to hear this kind of feedback!

We live just over the Scottish border, but are in Berwick at least 3 times per week. My Eldest daughter lives in Tweedmouth. Thanks for posting.

It's a beautiful part of the world, especially with that coastal scenery on the way up from Berwick towards Eyemouth and beyond :) That's a rather lovely drive if you get the chance to do it a good few times a week visiting Berwick and Tweedmouth!

That's so wonderful to hear! Tweedmouth is a fascinating place and home to a lot of its own heritage across the river from Berwick, I very much enjoyed visiting on this morning :) I've actually made a few videos in the past in Berwick, from the town centre to the pier and lighthouse, and you can watch them here: Berwick Town Centre: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZoaorbF6aMrcicY.html Berwick Pier & Lighthouse: kzread.info/dash/bejne/naJpr82ohdyZpaw.html I hope you enjoy watching them, and I really hope you enjoyed watching this video of Tweedmouth :) Thank you so much for watching!

Lovely walk, astounded that the oldest building isn’t that old and is the Church. Shame. Well done on the commentary.

its been my goal to jump on a video soon as its been released.. and be the first!.. got there! my partner and me enjoyed the west yorkshire videos, she was brought up in Bradford and has fond memories of the area Skipton, Bingley, etc: more west country ones next time you get a holiday, like Bath, which I assume was a break foe you. hoping you will continue enjoying making these as much as we enjoy the 'virtual' day trips they afford!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you managed to get to this video first - and I hope you enjoyed watching the walk around Tweedmouth! West Yorkshire has been my base for a long time, and I've still got many W. Yorks walks coming in the near future, though I do like to give a nice balance of regions as much as I can. As you say, things further south are a little more out of reach, but I do love visiting places like Bath, and I've even got some more walks from beyond England to come :) I'll certainly continue making these videos - I absolutely love visiting and learning about different places all around the country, and if there's anywhere specific you'd like to see, please do let me know, and I'll add it to my list of future destinations! Thank you so much for watching and for your very kind comments - I'm so glad you enjoy these videos, it really means a lot to hear :)

It is! Right up on the windswept coast of Northumberland, Tweedmouth certainly has a distinct feel to it :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!

Thank you for this video - with its detailed and colourful history. Though it shows Tweedmouth well, it may be overlooking an important part of it - the foodstores. There are few small towns as well-served. Within easy walking distance of most residents is an Asda, a Marks & Spencer Food Hall and, a little farther-out, a Tesco Superstore. Additionally there's an accessible Homebase, Poundland &c, etc. Supermarkets may be nearer the heart of such a community than its history

Another splendid video . I did the last stretch of your walk myself a few years back. I was hoping to watch Berwick Rangers play but was hugely disappointed when I reached the ground only to be told the match had been postponed.There were slight traces of snow on the pitch. On my way back to town there were numerous kick abouts going on involving local children . Fortunately, Scotland's rugby match ( played in Edinburgh ) was being screened in a local pub . Draw your own conclusions .

Oh no! That's such a shame to hear - I wonder why they shut the match down then... Still, I'm glad you had a chance to watch the rugby in the pub - I can imagine that was a little toastier if anything else on that day :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, it means a lot to hear!

Thanks very interesting

Years ago my dad used to take me to tweedmouth to watch the b'wick rangers play there home games ,i reckon it must be the coldest footbal pitch in the uk....

I wish there was an audio commentary for this video. Its hard to read the information and watch the video at the same time

I was born here, although I live at the other end of the country now, and it brought back some very happy memories. I've just one query. On the way to Shielfield Park, you say you are walking on Etal Road. When I lived there, it was called Shielfield Terrace. Etal Road started further up Shielfield Terrace on the right, above the football ground. Lovely video and interesting historic facts though.

Interesting to know! It seems that the road names must have changed over time, though there's a bus stop at the bottom of Etal Road called 'Shielfield Terrace' according to the map :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and that it brought back some nice memories of Tweedmouth!

It's still called Shielfield Terrace right up until you get to the corner of Cornhill Road, It's after that it becomes Etal Road. In it's entirety its the B6435.

Is spittal and tweed mouth the same place was in figs at a pub in spittal called the galleon on the sea front I had a pal who lives on high cliff estate this was in 19 78 it's the last time I was in berwick

A good question! And one that has an equally complex answer as the line between Tweedmouth and Berwick. All three of Berwick, Tweedmouth and Spittal fall under the jurisdiction of Berwick Town Council, and as such you could say they all operate as one and the same town. However, Spittal, historically in England like Tweedmouth and with its stunning beach and promenade, very much has its own charm and heritage, so you could count it as a separate place from some perspectives :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!
